Demetrius of Antioch

Demetrianus (Greek: Demetrianos ) ( † 260 ) was bishop of Antioch to Fabius, and ahead of Paul of Samosata.

While some is known about his successor Paul of Samosata because of its related canonical controversy, the term of office of Demetrianus remains rather obscure. The exact date is uncertain, mostly the years 256-260 are called, in some episcopal lists, however, are found between Demetrianus and Paul still pushed a Amphilochios, the then Office 260-263 years are attributed; such Amphilochios is only poorly documented. According to the Chronicle of Eusebius of Caesarea Demetrianus was certainly bishop, when Emperor Gallienus issued his Edict of Toleration; This was in the year 260 For details on the official leadership of the Demetrianus and accurate data can be determined hardly, since there are no contemporary sources unlike Fabius and Paul, who had survived.
