- Source: Archdiocese of Angamaly
The Metropolitan Archdiocese of Angamaly was an ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Chaldean Catholic Church in Malabar, India. It came into existence as a Catholic continuation of the Ecclesiastical Province of India of the Church of the East following the schism of 1552. It was established in 1565 and continued to exist till 1599 when it was ultimately suppressed by the colonial Synod of Diamper in 1599 and replaced by the Portuguese Padroado administered Diocese of Angamaly (later Archdiocese of Cranganore) suffragan to the Padroado Primatal Archdiocese of Goa. The brief and turbulent history of the archdiocese is noted for the two archbishops, namely Joseph Sulaqa and Abraham, who were the last Persian prelates to govern the undivided Saint Thomas Christian community in South India.
