	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Montpellier
		Urban V (Guillaume de Grimoard) had studied theology and canon law at Montpellier and was crowned pope by Cardinal Ardouin Aubert, nephew of Innocent VI, and Bishop of Maguelonne from 1352 to 1354; hence the attachment of Pope Urban for this diocese which he favoured greatly.
		From that time the Bishop of Maguelonne had the right of coinage.
		Maguelonne was completely destroyed in the course of the wars between Charles Martel and the Saracens.

	Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When the early history of Maguelone was compiled in 1583 by Abbé Gariel (Histoire des évêques de Maguelonne) he provided the see with an apostolic origin, as is de rigueur for any long-established bishopric of Late Antiquity throughout the three Gauls.
		The bishop, as well as the King of Aragon and the Count of Toulouse, authorized the coinage of Arabic money, not intended for circulation in Maguelonne, but to be sold for exportation to the merchants of the Mediterranean [2].
		The first historical bishop of Maguelonne assisted at the Council of Narbonne in 589; doubtless the Christian community was far older.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Guillaume Pellissier
		In 1527 his uncle, Bishop of Maguelonne, appointed him canon and shortly afterwards his coadjutor.
		He obtained permission for the translation of his episcopal see from Maguelonne to Montpellier from Paul III in 1536.
		An ardent Humanist, he was arrested on suspicion of heresy by order of the Parliament of Toulouse, and imprisoned in the castle of Beaucaire, though he easily freed himself from the charge and passed the remainder of his days combatting the Protestant heresy.
