Migirpa was an ancient Roman-Berber civitas in the province of Africa Proconsularis. It flourished from 30 BCE to 640 CE. [1] The town is identified as stone ruins near Carthage, Tunisia. [2] [3]
Migirpa was also the seat of an ancient Christian diocese, [4] [5] an episcopal see, suffragan of the Archdiocese of Carthage. [6] The Diocese of Migirpa (in Latin Rite Migirpensis) is a home suppressed and titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. [7] There were five bishops documented in late antiquity at Migirpa and four in the 21st century.
Today Migirpa survives as a home suppressed and titular see of the Catholic Church. The current bishop is Andris Kravalis, of Riga.
