Nicopsia is early medieval fortified town on black sea shore, 45–47 km north-west from current Tuapse ( Russia). Town is mentioned in historical sources in V century but according to Arrian there was much earlier settlement named "Lazika". The remains of few orthodox churches and Basilica were found in the region. In early XIII century Nicopsia belonged to Dadiani, royal house of Georgia.
