History

Sasima is mentioned in only three non-religious documents: "Itiner. Anton.", 144; "Itiner. Hiersol.", 577;

Notitiae episcopatuum consider Sasima part of Cappadocia Secunda,[3] as does the Annuario Pontificio, making it a suffragan of Tyana.[4]

Ambrose of Sasima signed the letter of the bishops of the province to

Leo I the Thracian in 458. About the same time Eleusius appears as an adversary of the Council of Chalcedon.[3]

Towards 1143 Clement was condemned as a

Bogomile. The "Notitiae" mention the see until the following century.[3]
