Apamea Cibotus is enumerated by [[Hierocles (author of Synecdemus)|Hierocles]] among the [[Diocese|episcopal cities]] of the [[Roman province]] of [[Pisidia]]. [[Lequien]] gives the names of nine of its bishops. The first is a Julianus of Apamea at the Maeander who, [[Eusebius]] records, was in about 253 reported by [[Alexander of Hierapolis (Phrygia)]] to have joined others in examining the claims of the [[Montanism|Montanist]] [[Maximilla]]. The list of bishops from Pisidia who participated in the [[First Council of Nicaea]] (325) includes Tharsitius of Apamea. It also gives a Paulus of Apamea, but Lequien considers that in the latter case "Apamea" is a mistake for "Acmonia". A Bishop Theodulus of Apamea (who may, however, have been of Apamea in Bithynia) witnessed a will of [[Gregory of Nazianzus]]. Paulinus took part in the [[Council of Chalcedon]] (451) and was a signatory of the letter from the bishops of Pisidia to Emperor [[Leo I the Thracian]] concerning the killing in 457 of [[Proterius of Alexandria]]. In the early 6th century, Conon abandoned his bishopric of Apamea in Phrygia and became a military leader in a rebellion against [[Emperor Anastasius]]. The acts of the [[Second Council of Constantinople]] (553) were signed by "John by the mercy of God bishop of the city of Apamea in the province of Pisidia". Sisinnius of Apamea was one of the Pisidian bishops at the [[Second Council of Nicaea]] (787). The [[Fourth Council of Constantinople (Eastern Orthodox)|Council held at Constantinople in 879–880]] was attended by two bishops of Apamea in Pisidia, one appointed by [[Patriarch Ignatius of Constantinople]] the other by [[Photios I of Constantinople]].<ref name=Lequien>Michel Lequien, [https://books.google.com/books?id=0agp0mJFG_sC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false ''Oriens christianus in quatuor Patriarchatus digestus''], Paris 1740, Vol. I, coll. 1045-1046</ref>
Since it is no longer a residential diocese, Apamea Cibotus is today listed by the [[Catholic Church]] as a [[titular see]].<ref>''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 2013 {{ISBN
