HarBfdllaB(MASSiUA),DiocE8KOF(MAsaiuBNBia), suffragan of Aix, comprises the district of Iklarseilles in the Department of Bouehes-du-Rhone. Founded about 600 H. c. by a colony of Phoenicians and taken by Cffisar in 49 b. c, Marseilles was captured by the Viaigoths in a. d. 480; later it belonged to the Burgun- diaoe, afterwards, from 607-637, to the Ostrogoth Theodoric and hia Buccessors. In .5^7 it was ceded to


the Fra iiks under (;!iildebrt and annexe-ltotbe King- dom of Paris. Laterthe city wasdivided bet weenSigc- bert of .\ustrasia aud Gontran ot Burgundy. It had various masters until Boson became King of Bur- gundy-Provence (879). The Marseilles of the Middle Ages oweil allegiance to three sovereignties. The epis- copal town, for which the i>ishop swore fealty only to the emperor, included the harbour of La Joliette, the fisherman's district, and three citadels (Chateau Ba- b(wi,Roquebarlje, and the bishop's palace). The lower town l«loneed to the viscounts and became a republic in 1*214; and the abbatial town, dependent on the Abl>ey of St. Victor, comprised a few market towns and cha(eaux south of the harbour. In 1246 Mar-
