Turuda

Turuda was an ancient Roman-Berber city and former diocese in Africa Proconsulare in Algeria. It is currently a Roman Catholic titular see.

History

Turuda was important enough in the Roman province of Africa proconsularis to become one of the many suffragans of its great capital Carthage's Metropolitan Archbishop, but was to fade like most.

Titular see

In 1989 it was nominally restored as a Latin titular bishopric.

It has had the following incumbents of the lowest (episcopal) rank :
