Ptolemais was a ancient port city on the Canaanite coast in the ancient region of Phoenicia, in the location of the present-day city of Acre, Israel. It was also called Ptolemais in Canaan and Ake-Ptolemais (or Akko, Ake, or Akre in Canaanite Language). It was an ancient bishopric that became a double Catholic titular see.
In the Middle Ages, it was known as Acre amongst some Crusaders, who established a militant Latin Christian order.
