History edit

Girgenti (the Greek Acragas, Roman Agrigentum) considers Saint Libertinus as its earliest proselytizer; he is said to have been sent by Saint Peter. Local enthusiasm for an Apostolic connection even led someone to forge a bull of investiture, an instrument which was not created for centuries.[4]

Gregory of Agrigento, said to have been martyred in 262, never existed. His name occurs in the hagiographical work, "The Life of St. Agrippina", but the author of that work, a person of the eighth or ninth century, placed the sixth century Bishop Gregory of Agrigento in the wrong context.[5]

The earliest bishop of certain date is Potamius, who was believed to be a contemporary of Pope Agapetus I (535–36).[6] Other scholars place him in the seventh century, in which case he would not be the earliest Bishop of Agrigento.[5]

The succession of bishops, interrupted by the Saracen invasion (879–1038),[7] began again in 1093 with Gerland of Agrigento.
