Dadastana (Ancient Greek:Δαδάστανα) was an inland town ofancient Bithynia.[1] TheTabula Peutingeriana places it on a road fromNicaea toJuliopolis, and 29M. P. from Juliopolis. It appears to have been near the borders of Bithynia andGalatia, asAmmianus says.[2] The emperorJovianus on his return from the East came fromAncyra to Dadastana, where he died suddenly.
Its site is located nearKarahisar,Asiatic Turkey.[3][4]
