Beatrix de Courtenay held two titles, the first as Titular Countess of Edessa, a city in Upper Mesopotamia and an early centre of Syriac Christianity; what was her second title?
Edessa Edessa (Greek Ἔδεσσα , Turkish: "Şanlıurfa" ,Arabic الرها , Kurdish: Riha ) was a city in Upper Mesopotamia, founded on an earlier site by Seleucus I Nicator ca. 302 BC. It was also known as "Antiochia on the Callirhoe" from the 2nd century BC. It was the capital of the semi-independent kingdom of Osroene from c. 132 BC and fell under direct Roman rule in ca. 242. It became an important early centre of Syriac Christianity.
Archdeacon An archdeacon is a senior clergy position in the Syriac Orthodox Church, Church of the East, Chaldean Catholic Church, Anglican Communion, St Thomas Christians, Eastern Orthodox churches and some other Christian denominations, above that of most clergy and below a bishop. In the High Middle Ages it was the most senior diocesan position below a bishop in the Roman Catholic Church. An archdeacon is often responsible for administration within an archdeaconry, which is the principal subdivision of the diocese. The "Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church" has defined an archdeacon as "A cleric having a defined administrative authority delegated to him by the bishop in the whole or part of the diocese." The office has often been described metaphorically as that of "oculus episcopi", the "bishop's eye".
