SUMMARY

The Church of Boeotia showed a dynamic evolution from the beginnings of the 1st century A.D. and during the entire Byzantine period. Many bishops’ names survive already from the early Christian period, whereas tens of churches were founded. Local church was powerful enough during the middle Byzantine period and remained flourishing until the Latin conquest in 1204, when it was put under the jurisdiction of a Latin archbishop.
