Catholicosate in Sis (1293-1930)
The city of Sis (modern-day Kozan, Adana, Turkey) was the center of the Catholicosate of the Great House of Cilicia for more than six centuries starting 1293, when the Catholicosate moved from Hromgla to Sis. During the Armenian Genocide, in 1915, the Armenian population and the monastery of St. Sophia of Sis, home of the Catholicosate (which dominated the town in early 20th-century photographs) was destroyed. The last residing Catholicos in Sis was Sahak II of Cilicia (Catholicos from 1902 to 1939). Sahak II followed his Armenian flock in exile from Turkey.
