Musbanda or Mousbanda, also called Mousbada, was a town of ancient Cilicia and later of Isauria, inhabited in Roman and Byzantine times.[1] It became a bishopric; no longer the seat of a residential bishop, it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.[2]

Its site is located near Dumlugöze, Asiatic Turkey.[1][3]
