Albanenses

The Albanenses were a Cathar sect in Italy in the 12th and 13th centuries. They were Dualistic cosmology, absolute dualists and their headquarters was in Desenzano. The other sects were the moderate dualist Concorezzenses and an intermediate group called Bagnolenses. According to Rainier Sacconi, writing in 1250, all the Cathar sects recognized each other in spite of their differences except the Albanenses and Concorezzenses, who condemn each other. The Albanenses were the followers of ''papa'' Nicetas (Bogomil bishop), Niketas and the ''ordo'' of Drugunthia.
