Its location today could be the port city of Poti, Georgia (country), Georgia. Its ancient bishopric became a Latin Catholic titular see of Metropolitan rank. Etymology The names of ancient Phasis and modern Poti are apparently linked to each other, but the etymology is a matter of a scholarly dispute. "Phasis" is first recorded in Hesiod's ''Theogony'' (c. 700 BC) as a name of the Phasis (river), river, not a town.
