ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
The predecessor of the ecclesiastical administration of Anea was the namesake bishopric of the Byzantine period, which remained inactive after the Turkish expansion to western Asia Minor. It was revived in the 19th century, when the bishopric of Crene and Anea was established in 1802. The part of Anea became later a separate bishopric under the diocese of Ephesus, and was promoted to a diocese of its own in 1906 . |
