Sura, Syria
Sura (Suriya), was an ancient city on the Euphrates River in northern province of Syria, and later on, in the Euphratensis.
In the 3rd century, Sura was a marginal attachment to the Strata Diocletiana to protect it against the Parthian Empire|Parthians]]. According to the Notitia dignitatum, Sura was the seat of the Prefect of the Legio XVI Flavia Firma. The legionary camp was located in the city and the city wall (1700 × 450 meters) was renewed under Justinian.
== Bishopric ==
Sura became a Christian bishopric, a suffragan of the metropolitan see of Hierapolis Euphratensis, the capital of the Roman province of Syria Euphratensis, as witnessed by a 6th-century ''Notitia Episcopatuum''.〔(''Echos d'Orient'' X, 1907, p. 94 ).〕 At the Council of Chalcedon in 451, metropolitan bishop Stephanus signed the acts also on behalf of Bishop Uranius of Sura. Bishop Marius of Sura was deposed in 518 for joining the Jacobites.〔Michel Lequien, (''Oriens christianus in quatuor Patriarchatus digestus'' ), Paris 1740, Vol. II, coll. 949-950〕〔Pius Bonifacius Gams, (''Series episcoporum Ecclesiae Catholicae'' ), Leipzig 1931, p. 437〕〔(Sura ) in ''Catholic Encyclopedia''〕
No longer a residential bishopric, Sura is now listed by the Catholic Church as a titular see.〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 2013 ISBN 978-88-209-9070-1), p. 978〕
