Apollonia Salbaces or Apollonia Salbakes (Ancient Greek: Ἀπολλωνία Σαλβάκη) was a town in ancient Caria, Anatolia.
It became the seat of a bishop, and under the name Apollonia Salbace it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.[1]
The site of Apollonia Salbaces is near the modern village Medet[2][3] in the Tavas district of Denizli province in Turkey.
