Excerpt from Canterbury: With Map So persistently did the Romans adhere to' their Original tribal forms, that notwithstanding the' early establishment of Christianity throughout Italy, a learned writer has proved that no parochial boun daries existed even in Rome itself before the year 1000. 1 Thus the claim Of Pope Evaristus (resting on the spurious decretal which goes by his name) to have first instituted local parochial divisions in Rome, falls to the ground 3 While the improbability that this delimitation of parishes took place at an earlier period in the more distant parts of the Empire than at its centre becomes apparent.
