Theodorias (Greek:Θεοδωριάς) was aByzantine province created in 528 by EmperorJustinian I and named in honour of his wife, the EmpressTheodora.^[1]

History

[edit]

It comprised a small coastal territory taken from the earlier provinces ofSyria Prima andSyria Secunda. The new province remained part of theDiocese of the East. Its capital wasLaodicea (in Syria; now Latakia), and it also included the cities ofPaltus (Arab al-Mulk),Balaneae andGabala. Ecclesiastically, these cities retained their former allegiances to themetropolitan bishops of Syria Prima and Secunda:^[1]Antioch andApamea in Syria.

The province survived until theMuslim conquest of Syria in the 630s.^{[citation needed]}
