The former, visits paid in accordance with a See also:vow, were very frequent in the See also:middle ages, and were under the See also:special See also:protection of the See also:pope, who put the See also:ban upon any who should molest pilgrims " who go to Rome for See also:God's See also:sake."

The visits demanded by See also:law were of more importance. In 743 a See also:Roman See also:synod decreed that all bishops subject to the See also:metropolitan see of Rome should meet personally every See also:year in that See also:city to give an See also:account of the See also:state of their dioceses.
