Pedro De Ponte
Pedro de Ponte (''floruit'' 1163–90), possibly a Galician, was the royal chancellor of the Kingdom of León from 1170 to 1172 and the second bishop of the newly founded see of Ciudad Rodrigo from 1174 until his death. His predecessor, Bishop Domingo, is a shadowy figure who was deceased by 1173 at the latest. Pedro was a royal clerk from at least as early as 1163, and was awarded prebends in the wealthy dioceses of Oviedo and Santiago de Compostela. After being awarded the bishopric, he visited the Roman curia in 1175 to receive confirmation of the new diocese, since King Ferdinand II had founded it without papal approval. This he received, although not without also receiving a rebuke for the king. Pedro returned to Rome in 1179 to attend the Third Lateran Council. Nothing further of his episcopal activity is known, but in 1189 he made a personal donation to the far-off monastery of Sobrado, fuelling academic speculation that he may have hailed from that region. Pedro was suc ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

They are also sometimes called the Black Monks, in reference to the colour of their religious habits.

Diocese Of Coria
In church governance, a diocese or bishopric is the ecclesiastical district under the jurisdiction of a bishop. History In the later organization of the Roman Empire, the increasingly subdivided provinces were administratively associated in a larger unit, the diocese (Latin ''dioecesis'', from the Greek term διοίκησις, meaning "administration"). Christianity was given legal status in 313 with the Edict of Milan. Churches began to organize themselves into dioceses based on the civil dioceses, not on the larger regional imperial districts. These dioceses were often smaller than the provinces. Christianity was declared the Empire's official religion by Theodosius I in 380. Constantine I in 318 gave litigants the right to have court cases transferred from the civil courts to the bishops. This situation must have hardly survived Julian, 361–363. Episcopal courts are not heard of again in the East until 398 and in the West in 408. The quality of these courts was l ...
