At one time it was reckoned as having belonged to Caria or Lydia, but under the Roman Empire it was within the province of Asia, with Ephesus as its capital; the bishop of Nysa was thus a suffragan of the metropolitan see of Ephesus. Nysa was situated on the southern slope of mount Messogis, on the north of the Maeander, and about midway between Tralles and Antioch on the Maeander.
