Solomon I, Bishop Of Constance
Solomon (or Salomon) I (died 871) was the Bishop of Constance from an unknown date between 835 and 847 until his death. He was the first of an "episcopal dynasty" which ruled Constance until 919 and briefly held the Diocese of Freising from 884 until 906 and Diocese of Chur, that of Chur from 913 until 949. In 847, his diocese was the first to be disturbed by the preachings of a false prophetess named Thiota. She was condemned at a synod in Mainz later that year and ceased to be a problem thereafter. Solomon attended the synod of Worms (868). Sources *The Annals of Fulda '. (Manchester Medieval series, Ninth-Century Histories, Volume II.) Reuter, Timothy (trans.)

Bishop Of Constance
The Prince-Bishopric of Constance, (german: Hochstift Konstanz, Fürstbistum Konstanz, Bistum Konstanz) was a small ecclesiastical principality of the Holy Roman Empire from the mid-12th century until its secularisation in 1802–1803. In his dual capacity as prince and as bishop, the prince-bishop also governed the Diocese of Konstanz, which existed from about 585 until its dissolution in 1821, and whose territory extended over an area much larger than the principality."Diocese of Konstanz " ''''.

Diocese Of Chur
The Diocese of Chur is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or diocese of the Catholic Church in Switzerland. It extends over the Swiss Cantons of Graubünden (Grisons), Schwyz, Glarus, Zurich, Nidwalden, Obwalden and Uri. The modern Catholic diocese must be distinguished from the historical Prince-Bishopric of Chur, a state of the Holy Roman Empire. History A Bishop of Chur is first mentioned in 451/ 452 when its Bishop Saint Asimo attended the Synod of Milan, but probably existed a century earlier. The see was at first suffragan to the Archbishop of Milan, but after the Treaty of Verdun (843) it became suffragan to Mainz. In consequence of political changes it became in 1803 immediately subject to the Holy See. According to local traditions, the first Bishop of Chur was Saint Lucius, who is said to have died a martyr at Chur around the year 176 and whose relics are preserved in the cathedral. St. Lucius is venerated as the principal patron of the diocese. The country ha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Thiota
Thiota (; 847 AD) was a heretical Christian prophetess of the ninth century. She was originally from Alemannia (then part of East Francia), and in 847 she began prophesying that the world would end that year. Her story is known from the ''Annales Fuldenses'' which record that she disturbed the diocese of Bishop Salomon, that is, the Diocese of Constance, before arriving in Mainz. A large number of people were persuaded by her words, as well as even some clerics. In fear, many gave her gifts and sought prayers. Finally, the bishops of Gallia Belgica ordered her to attend a synod in St Alban's church in Mainz. She was eventually forced to confess that she had made up her predictions at the urging of a priest and for lucrative gain. She was publicly flogged and stripped of her ministry, which the Fuldensian annalist says she had taken up "unreasonably ... against the customs of the church"-possibly a reference to her being a woman who claimed religious authority for herself.

The Synod of Worms of May 868 was a council of the church in East Francia, convoked by King Louis the German at the request of Pope Nicholas I. It condemned the Synod of Constantinople of 867 as heretical and condemned Great Moravia for rebelling against Louis.Eric J. Goldberg, ''Struggle for Empire: Kingship and Conflict Under Louis the German, 817–876'' (Cornell University Press, 2006), pp. 282–283. The synod was attended by two archbishops, twenty bishops, a chorbishop and seven abbots.
