Motella , Metello u polis , or Pulcherianopolis was a city in the Roman province of Phrygia Pacatiana , in Asia Minor , probably on the site of the modern Medele . Inscriptions make known a Phrygia n town named Motella, which name is connected with the Phrygian feminine proper name Motalis and the Cilician masculine Motales, as also with Mutalli, or Mutallu, the name of an ancient Hittites Hittite king of Northern Commagene . One of these inscriptions was found in the village of Medele , which evidently preserves the ancient name. Motella seems to be the town which Hierocles author of Synecdemus Hierocles ref Synecdemus , 668, 6. ref calls Pulcherianopolis. Ecclesiastical history Motella may be supposed to have been raised to the rank of a bishopric by the Empress Pulcheria 414 53 . Shortly before 553, perhaps in 535, the Emperor Justinian raised Hierapolis to Metropolitan bishop metropolitan rank, and attached to it a certain number of suffragan see s previously dependent on Laodicea. Among these the Notitiae Episcopatuum mention, from the ninth to the twelfth or thirteenth century, this same Motella, which they call Metellopolis, and even once Metallopolis. An inscription informs us of Bishop Michael, in 556 and another, of Bishop Cyriacus, perhaps in 667. At the Second Council of Nicaea Council of Nicaea , 787, the see was represented by Eudoxius, a priest and monk. Bishop Michael attended the two councils of Constantinople in 869 and 879.
