Hieron, Caria
:''See Hiero(n) for namesakes'' Hieron (in Caria) was an ancient city and former bishopric in ancient Caria, Asia Minor, which remains a Latin Catholic titular see as Hieron. History Hieron, now Avsarkale in Asian Turkey, was important enough in the Roman province of Caria (civil Diocese of Asia) to become a suffragan of its capital Stauropolis's Metropolitan, in the sway of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. It has no historically documented bishops, but was mentioned in the Byzantine empire's Notitia Episcopatuum, from the edition of pseudo-Epifanio, under emperor Heraclius I (circa 640), until Byzantine emperor Leo VI (early tenth century) and existed still in the thirteenth century.Vincenzo Ruggiari, ''A historical Addendum to the episcopal Lists of Caria'', in ''Revue des études byzantines'', 1996, Volume 54, Nr. 54, p. 233.

Missionary Benedictines
The Ottilien Congregation, often also known as the St. Ottilien Congregation and as the Missionary Benedictines, is a congregation of religious houses within the Benedictine Confederation, the aim of which is to combine the Benedictine way of life with activity in the mission field. History The congregation was founded in 1884, incorporating the houses founded on the vision of Andreas Amrhein, a monk of Beuron Archabbey, who, finding it impossible to realise the vision of the Benedictine mission within Beuron, left to begin an independent community. He set up a house in 1884 at Reichenbach in the Oberpfalz, but the site was too remote, and in 1887 the community moved to what is now St. Ottilien Archabbey in Oberbayern. In the same year the first missionary monks left for the Apostolic Prefecture of South Zanzibar in German East Africa, a territory which now comprises several dioceses in Tanzania, which the monks serve from the abbeys of Peramiho, Ndanda and Hanga and several s ...

Coadjutor Bishop
A coadjutor bishop (or bishop coadjutor) is a bishop in the Catholic, Anglican, and (historically) Eastern Orthodox churches whose main role is to assist the diocesan bishop in the administration of the diocese. The coadjutor (literally, "co-assister" in Latin) is a bishop himself, although he is also appointed as vicar general. The coadjutor bishop is, however, given authority beyond that ordinarily given to the vicar general, making him co-head of the diocese in all but ceremonial precedence. In modern times, the coadjutor automatically succeeds the diocesan bishop upon the latter's retirement, removal, or death. Catholic Church In the Catholic Church, a coadjutor is a bishop with papal appointment as an immediate collaborator of the diocesan bishop in the governance of a diocese, with authority to substitute for the diocesan bishop in his absence and right to automatic succession to the diocesan see upon death, resignation, or transfer of the incumbent diocesan bishop.
