=== Site of the Assembly ===▼
▲== Site of the Assembly ==
Austrian historian [[Karl Patsch]]'s opinion that the Assembly of the province [[Moesia Superior]] sat at Remesiana, based upon the fact that some inscriptions were discovered, "inaugurated between 202 and 209 by [[Ulpiana]] in honour of [[Septimius Severus]] and [[Julia Augusta]]{{dn|date=January 2017}}<!--His wife Julia Domna?-->,"<ref>CIL III 1685, 1686 and 1688 = 8257</ref> is not correct. [[File:Bela Palanka Sept Sev.jpg|thumb|[[Septimius Severus]] monument in [[Bela Palanka]]]]
=== Septimius Severus ===
One can see in a recently discovered inscription of identical content<ref>Vulich, Ancient Monuments of our country, Spomenik XCVIII, 1941 - 1948, 3, No. 4</ref> that these inscriptions were inaugurated in 202. However, that year Septimius Severus returned from the east to Rome and probably passed through Remesiana and on that occasion the inscriptions were inaugurated.
== Ecclesiastical History ==
Remesiana is a [[Roman Catholic]] [[titular See]].<ref>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12763a.htm Remesiana] - [[Catholic Encyclopedia]]</ref>▼
Remesiana was import enough in the Late [[Roman province]] of [[Dacia Mediterranea]] to become (circa 300 AD) one of the [[suffragan]]s of its capital's Metropolitan, the [[Archdiocese of Serdica]], in the sway of the [[Patriarchate of Constantinople]].
It was suppressed circa 500 AD.
Only two residential ''Suffragan Bishops of Remesiana'' are historically documented :
