	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Bamberg
		The old Bishopric of Bamberg was composed of an unbroken territory extending from Schlusselfeld in a north-easterly direction to the Franconian Forest, and possessed in addition estates in the Duchies of Carinthia and Salzburg, in the Nordgau (the present Upper Palatinate), in Thuringia, and on the Danube.
		In spite of the bishop's zeal for souls, the Reformation spread through the diocese, and Protestantism gained a footing, especially in Nuremberg and in the Franconian possessions of the Electors of Brandenburg.
		This period was followed by an era of calm during the episcopates of George IV Fuchs von Rugheim (1556-61), Veit II of Würzburg (1561-77), John George I Zobel of Giebelstadt (1577-80), Martin von Eyb (1580-83); none of these men, however, were able to correct abuses and reduce the debts of the see.

		In the biased opinion of the author, the story of the urvogel is the greatest of all vertebrate paleontology—indeed, it is the story of evolution itself.
		All of the urvogel fossils have been recovered from the Southern Franconian Alb, consisting of calcium carbonate deposits of variable quality and thickness, cut by the Altmuhl and Danube Rivers, north of Munich, in Bavaria (Viohl 1985, Buisonje 1985, Barthel, Swinburne, Morris 1990, Feduccia 1996, Kemp and Unwin 1997).
		Considering the exquisite preservation of the specimen, quarried out of the Franconian Alb at Eichstatt, its misidentification as a gracile coelurosaur is astonishing, when one considers the voracity of those who argue against a theropod origin for birds.
