A Council of Toledo, held under King Gondemare, in 610.
THIS Council was made up of Fifteen Bishops of the Carthaginian Province, who owned the Archbishop of Toledo for their Metropolitan, and promised subjection to him. King * 1.1Gondemare caused this Constitution to be put in execution, and gave out a Declaration, which was subscribed by the Bishops of the other Provinces of Spain, wherein he decreed, That the Bishop of Toledo shall be acknowledged Primate or Metropolitan of the whole Carthaginian Province, and enjoyns all the Bishops of this Province to obey him. He observeth there, That the Country of Carpetania is not a Province, but part of the Carthaginian Province; and that as the other Provinces of his Kingdom, viz. Lusitania, Boetica and Tarraconensis, have each of them but one Primate, the Carthaginian likewise must have but one; according to the Canons and the ancient Usage.
