Mutugenna

Mutugenna or Muttegena was a colonia (town) of the Roman, Berber and Vandal empires, located in the Maghreb.

Mutugenna was also the locus of a bishopric and was an important site in the development of the Donatist schism.

The Diocese of Mutugenna (Dioecesis Mutugennensis) is today a suppressed and titular see of the Roman Catholic Church in the episcopal province of Numidia.

[1] [2][3] Muttugenna was an Early center of Donatism[5] and Augustine of Hippo visited the town to confront the Donatist rebaptising.

On one occasion he heard there had been rebaptising of Catholics and he went to reproach the practise[7] but was unable to find the people in question.
