Pidasa

Asia

Pidasa, also spelled Pedasa, was a town of ancient Caria in what is now southwestern Turkey. The Persians suffered a defeat there during the Ionian Revolt, and the town was once the chief settlement of the Leleges people. Pidasa was a polis and a member of the Delian League, until in the early second century BCE the city of Miletus absorbed its citizens and territory through a sympoliteia agreement.
