Carpentras, Council Of (Concilium Carpentoractense)

was held in 527, Caesarius of Ariles presiding, at the head of sixteen bishops. They published but one canon, which forbids the bishop to take anything from the parishes within his diocese, provided he has. a sufficient revenue for his maintenance. In this council, also, Agrecius, bishop of Antibes, was suspended during a year for conferring orders contrary to the canons. See Labbe, Concil. 4, 1663.
