Note 006
The situation and royalty of Lychnidus, or
Achrida, are clearly expressed in Cedrenus, (p. 713.) The
removal of an archbishop or patriarch from Justinianea prima
to Lychnidus, and at length to Ternovo, has produced some
perplexity in the ideas or language of the Greeks,
(Nicephorus Gregoras, l. ii. c. 2, p. 14, 15. Thomassin,
Discipline de l'Eglise, tom. i. l. i. c. 19, 23;) and a
Frenchman (D'Anville) is more accurately skilled in the
geography of their own country, (Hist. de l'Academie des
Inscriptions, tom. xxxi.)]
