Auzegera![]() Auzegera was a Roman-Berber town in the province of Africa Proconsularis and in late antiquity Byzacena. It was a Catholic Church diocese. The town has been tentatively identified with the ruins at Henchir-El-Baguel in modern Tunisia. It was during the Roman Empire on the Limes Tripolitanus,[1] sitting astride a wadi named after the town.[2] Auzegera was also the seat of an ancient Catholic bishopric,[3][4][5] under Carthage.[6] The diocese had two known bishops. Donato was a Donatist bishop at the conference of Carthage (411) as a Donatist representative of the city. There was no Catholic competitor.[7] In 484 Villatico was among the Catholic bishops summoned to Carthage by the Vandal king Huneric.[8] he was then sent into exile. Today the bishopric survives as a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. The current bishop is Juan Armando Pérez Talamantes.[9] References
