Patriarch John I of Alexandria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Talaia was ordained Patriarch of Alexandria, Egypt in 482. Due to his opposition to Monophysitism, he was opposed by the local champion Peter Mongus, and despite the support of Roman Pope Felix III eventually relinquished his claim to the see and became Bishop of Nola.
