The Diocese of Carcabia is a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.12
Historically, three bishops are mentioned being from Carcabia:
- Victorian participated in the Council of Cabarsussi, held in 393 by Maximianus, a dissident sect of the Donatists, and they signed the acts; he was sentenced, along with the other bishops, in the Donatist Council of Bagai of 394.
- At the Council of Carthage the Donatist bishop Donatian was an attendee. The diocese at that time had no Catholic bishops.
- Simplicio attended the synod in Carthage in 484 called by the Vandal king Huneric, after which Simplicio was exiled.
Today Carcabia survives as titular bishopric;3 the current bishop is Manuel Nin,4 Apostolic Exarch of Greece.5
