The alleged diocese of Delminium

Ante Škegro ; Hrvatski institut za povijest, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Sažetak

The Christianisation of the deeper hinterland of Salona
and Narona, which includes the Duvno region,
proceeded along the major communication routes
that linked these settlements to Pannonia. Christianity
began to spread to the areas of Duvno, as well
as Livno and Glamoč, from the direction of the lake
known as Buško Blato. Despite the discovery of a
number of Early Christian sacral structures, mainly
basilicas, there is no evidence of the existence of a
diocese in the Duvno area during Antiquity or the
Early Middle Ages, nor that this area was the seat
of a diocesan bishop. The controversial bishop Malchus
(† 594), who is most often associated with the
alleged diocese of Delminium, was the administrator
of the papal estates in Dalmatia, and not a diocesan
bishop.
