Patriarch Athanasius III of Alexandria

Athanasius III served as Greek Patriarch of Alexandria between 1276 and 1316.

Relations with the Church of Rome
Athanasius, then ill with gout, attended the Council of Blachernae in 1285 which repudiated the attempted union at Lyons. Since Pope Innocent III appointed a titular Latin Patriarch of Alexandria in 1310, it is likely that ecclesiastical communion with Rome had been broken by Athanasius III episcopate.
