Stratonicea (Lydia)

Stratonicea – (Greek: Στρατoνικεια, or Στρατονίκεια) also transliterated as Stratoniceia and Stratonikeia, earlier Indi, and later for a time Hadrianapolis – was an ancient city in the valley of the Caicus river, between Germe and Acrasus, in Lydia, Anatolia; its site is currently near the village of Siledik, in the district of Kırkağaç, Manisa Province, in the Aegean Region of Turkey.

The foundation of the city dates from the Hellenistic period, probably on the site of an older settlement, Indi.

However, as several Seleucid leaders also had wives named "Stratonice", the identification of the actual founder is not unchallenged.

The ancient bishopric of Stratonicea in Lydia is included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.

[4] The only titular bishop of the see was Alphonse Bermyn, who was appointed on 15 April 1901 and died on 16 February 1915.
