Sažetak
A certain bishop Aemilianus is mentioned in a letter of pope Leo III directed to Charlemagne (dated 806–810) in course of selection of a new, temporary seat for the exiled patriarch Fortunatus II of Grado. It is reported that Aemilianus used to preside the church of Pula. Two differing opinions have formed in scholarship concerning his identity: that he was actually a mid-8th century patriarch of Grado who temporary resided in Pula, and that he was simply a bishop of Pula who preceded Fortunatus at the very beginning of the 9th century. The latter view is supported here, and argued for in detail. The Pre-Romanesque ciborium from the cathedral baptistry is attributed to Aemilianus' activity during his short tenure as bishop of Pula (804–806).
