Constantin cel Mare, de la curtea lui Dioclețian la Maximus Augustus și Biserica din Scythia
Constantine the Great, from the Diocletian's court to Maximus Augustus and the Church of Scythia

Summary/Abstract: The year 2013, dedicated to St. Emperors Constantine and Helen, has brought to our attention the whole history of the IVth century, with its respective unrest, controversies, but also, frustrations. Our study follows the path of Constantine the Great, from Diocletian’s court to the time when he became the only ruler of the empire, catching a glimpse of the Danube limes which was the focus of the great emperor. The information discovered in Synaxarum Ecclesiae Constantinopolitanae about a Scythians’ church, is of the utmost importance. Two new bishops, Aiterios – Eterios, acknowledged also by other sources, as well as Capiton, are added to the list of hierarchs that have been mentioned up to now in the Romanian ecclesial historiography to the north of the Danube: Theophilus of Gothica, Wulfila, Goddas, Maximus.
