Town of ancient Bithynia
Sangarus or Sangaros (Ancient Greek: Σάγγαρος) was a town of ancient Bithynia near the shore of the Propontis. In the 4th century, an early Christian sect, the Novatianists, held a synod here.[1] Yitzhak ha-Sangari may have been a native.
Its site is located near Hersek, Asiatic Turkey.<ref> (Sokrates, History of the Church, V.21; Sozomenos, Ecclesiastical History, VII.18)
