Bargasa

Western Asia

Bargasa, also known as Pargasa, was a city of ancient Caria, in the region of what is now southwestern Turkey. It was a polis, or self-governing city-state, and a member of the Athenian-led Delian League, and it minted its own coins. The geographer Strabo mentions the city, whose site has been identified near modern Gokbel in the Milas district of Turkey.
