Daldis
Daldis was an Ancient city and former bishopric, and is now a Latin Catholic titular see.
History
The Ancient city of Daldis was located near Narlïkale in Asia Minor (modern Asian Turkey).
It was important enough in the Roman province of Lydia to become a suffragan bishopric of the Metropolitan See of Sardes, but faded.
Titular see
The diocese was nominally restored in 1933 as a Latin Catholic titular bishopric.
It is vacant, having had the following incuments, both of the lowest (episcopal) rank :
- Titular Bishop Charles Weber (萬賓來), Divine Word Missionaries (S.V.D.) (1937.12.02 – 1946.04.11), Apostolic Vicar of the then Yizhoufu (December 2, 1937 – April 11, 1946), promoted suffragan Bishop of Yizhoufu (April 11, 1946 – August 7, 1970)
- Titular Bishop Henry Theophilus Klonowski (1947.05.10 – 1977.05.06), Auxiliary Bishop of Scranton (USA) (1947.05.10 – 1973.05.15)]]
