Tabula paschalis /
Theophilus,Saint,active 2nd century.
Theophilus,Saint, Patriarch of Alexandria,-412.
Council of Nicaea(1st :325)
[Rome? : Reverenda Camera Apostolica?,
16--?].
Both St. Theophilus, Bishop of Caesarea and St. Theophilus, Patriarch of Alexandria are authors of epistles on the Easter Question. An epistle from Pope Leo the Great to the Emperor Marcian states that the Council of Nicaea assigned the task of announcing the annual date of Easter to the Patriarchate of Alexandria, as does a 'Prologus paschalis' attributed to Saint Cyril, later shown to be a forgery. There appears, though, to be no contemporary evidence for this assertion.
