Cellae in Proconsulari

Cellae in Proconsulari was an ancient city and bishopric in Roman Africa, which remains a Latin titular see.

The city was one of many in the Late Roman province of Africa Proconsularis which were important enough to become the seat of an ancient episcopal see, suffragan of the primatial Metropolitan of Carthage,[1] but later faded.

Morcelli[2] mentions only one bishop, Cipriano, who was among the Catholic prelates summoned to Carthage in 484 by the Vandal king Huneric .

Morcelli mentions another venue Cellensis, which ranks in the Roman province of Byzacena.

In 1933 the diocese was nominally restored as titular bishopric Cellae in Proconsulari, of the lowest (episcopal) rank.
