Ursinus (bishop)

Ursinus was a bishop of -Konstanz and/or of Constance.
A Ursinus appears as the third entry in the 'Zweifalt Bishops List' of 1143-1144, after Bubulcus and Grammatius.
A Merovingian dedicatory or building inscription in vulgar Latin mentions a bishop called "Ursinos", along with a Detibaldus and a Linculfus - originally on a lost church dedicated to St Martin of Tours, it was built into the outer wall of the former St.-Marienkirche in Windisch, Switzerland as spolia in the 16th century at the latest. In full it reads:
However, according to Franz Xaver Kraus, the inscription refers to another Ursinus attested elsewhere as "Ursinos ebescubus“ or "Ursinus episcopus", who held the Bishopric of Constance from the late 6th to early 7th centuries between Ruodelo and Gaudentius.
