ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
Neocaesarea became a diocese in the 17th century and functioned as such until 1923. However, already from the previous centuries there were repeated efforts to make the city of Neokaisareia the centre of an ecclesiastical province. During the last centuries of the Ottoman Empire the diocese was one of the largest in Asia Minor, but the number of its flock was proportionally small. |
