  • Catholicos is the title used by head bishops of regions within the Patriachate of Antioch having self ecclesiastical and autonomus status from the ancient period. The word "Catholicos" means "Universal". There existed 4 Catholicates within the Patriarchate of Antioh: 1. Catholicate of Echmiadzin 2. Catholicate of East 3. Catholicate of Iberia 4. Catholicate of Caucasian Albania 'Catholicos of the East' was/is the head of the Syrian Church which comprised the region once formed Persian Empire and to the East of that empire. Syriac Churches which includes the Assyrian Churches of Persia, the Chaldean Church and the Orthodox Syrian Church of India, which is also known as the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church or the Indian Orthodox Church calims the lineage of this Catholicate. These Churches believe that Apostle St. Thomas was first in the succession of Catholicoi of the East followed by Saint Mari and then Saint Addai. Later this bishoporic was elevated as a Catholicate by the Patraichate in 410 AD.
