Bria (Phrygia)

Bria is an ancient city in Phrygia, Asia Minor. Bria was located in the late Roman province of Phrygia Pacatiana Prima, south of Acmonia. It was probably within the conventus iuridicus of Apamea.

Bria is the Thraco-Phrygian word for 'town', and appears in other placenames, such as Mesembria and Selymbria.

Bria issued coins under the Severan dynasty.
