Biography


On 7 July 1503, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Alexander VI as Bishop of Sulcis in Sardinia. On 9 January 1514, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Leo X as Archbishop of Cagliari in Sardinia. He served as until his death in 1521. In the 16th century Sardinia belonged to Habsburg Spain. Presumably Juan Pilars descended from the Spanish Pilars family from Zaragoza. Another theory indicates that he was from Bohemia, also part of Habsburg Empire.
