Niksar
Niksar is a district of Tokat province and a settlement that is the center of this district. It has had a municipal organization since 1891. During the Pontus Kingdom, which was established after the end of the Persian Empire, many temples, palaces and settlements were built in the summer resort areas of Niksar, which was known as Caberia. The third of the Mithridatic Wars, which took place between the Romans and the Pontians in 72 BC, was fought in Niksar and the city came under Roman rule. The Romans named the city Neocaesarea (Kaiser's new city), and the name Neocaesarea turned into Niksar over time.
