Lapda


Lapda, was a civitas of the Roman province of Africa Proconsularis. Its exact location is now lost to history, though probably somewhere in central modern Tunisia. Also known as Labdia.
Lapda was also the seat of an ancient Christian episcopal see, suffragan to the Archdiocese of Carthage.
There are three bishops of antiquity mentioned by the historical sources.
Today Lapda survives as a titular bishopric and the current bishop is José Mauricio Vélez García, of Medellín.
