Putia in Byzacena


The diocese of Puzia in Byzacena is a suppressed and titular seat of the Roman Catholic Church.

History

Puzia in Byzacena was centered on a Roman era civitas of the Province of Byzacena, in what was Roman North Africa. That town has been tentatively identified with ruins at Bir-Abdallah, Tunisia.
The only known bishop of this diocese is Servando, who took part in the synod gathered in Carthage by the Vandal king Huneric in 484, after which Servando was exiled.
Today, Puzia in Byzacena survives as a titular bishop's residence. The current titular bishop is Jaime Cristóbal Abril González, auxiliary bishop of Nueva Pamplona.
