Pogla


Pogla was a town in the late Roman province of Pamphylia Secunda. Its bishopric, which was a suffragan of Perge, is included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.

History

Pogla is mentioned by Ptolemy, and possibly by Hierocles, where he speaks of a town called Socla in Pamphylia, perhaps a manuscript corruption. The modern name for the town is Fugla
Coins of Pogla of the 2nd and 3rd centuries are extant, bearing on the reverse images of emperors and on the reverse divinities such as Artemis, of with the inscription ΠΟΓΛΕΩΝ.

Bishops

mentions two bishops: Paul, present at the Council of Chalcedon and Nicephorus at the Council of Nicæa. The Notitiae Episcopatuum continue to mention the see among the suffragans of Perge as late as the 13th century.
