Potamius (Greek: Ποτάμιος, fl. 343–360 AD), also known as Potamius of Lisbon, was the first recorded bishop of the city of Lisbon.[1] He was possibly born in Lisbon, given that Iberian communities at the time usually chose their own citizens as bishops.[2] He was part of the Council of Sirmium in 357, in which he defended Arianism.[3] He is the second earliest Christian prose writer of the Iberian Peninsula, with Hosius of Corduba being the first.[2]
