Patriarch of the East Indies
The Patriarch of the East Indies in the Catholic hierarchy is the title of the Archbishop of Goa and Damao in India; another title of his is that of the Primate of the East. Unlike the patriarchs of Catholic Eastern Rite sui juris Churches, the Patriarch of the East Indies enjoys a purely honorary title and is fully subject to the pope.
