Town of ancient Pisidia, Byzantium

Atenia or Atenoa (Ancient Greek: Ὰτενόα), also known as Atmenia (Ὰτμενία),[1] was a town of ancient Pisidia. It became a bishopric; no longer the seat of a residential bishop, it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.[2]

Its site is located near Kireli Kasaba, in Asiatic Turkey.[3]
