3 The first formal canonisation occurred in 993, in the late tenth century. In this year John XV solemnly canonised St Ulric or Udalric, onetime bishop of Augsburg. However, some scholars believe that the first canonisation occurred in the early ninth century when it is said that St Swibert was canonised by Pope Leo III in 804. The tenth century is more probable.
