Tityassus or Tityassos was a town of ancient Isauria and of Pisidia, inhabited in Hellenistic and Roman times.[1] 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 Yenişarbademli (Bademli), Asiatic Turkey.[1][3]
