Vegesela in Byzacena


Vegesela in Byzacena was a Roman Era town tentatively identified with ruins at Henchir-Recba in modern Tunisia. The town was in the Roman province of Byzacena.
The ancient town was also the seat of an ancient Christian Bishopric, which survives today as a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. René Coba Galarza is the current Bishop. The diocese effectively ceased to function with the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb. Today the diocese of Vegesela in Byzacena is a suppressed and titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.
There are only six documented bishops of Vegesela in Byzacena.
