Person

Ursacius of Singidunum

active 330s–370s

Bishop of Singidunum

Attested. The Tyre commission and the Ariminum advocacy are in Athanasius and the historians. The sincerity of each recantation is what the parties disputed.

Ursacius, bishop of Singidunum, modern Belgrade, worked with Valens of Mursa against Athanasius. Athanasius names both on the commission sent into Egypt before Tyre. In 359 they pressed the Homoian formula on the western bishops at Ariminum. They recanted their charges against Athanasius more than once and returned to them. He is a court bishop of Constantius's generation, not a figure of 325.
