Pergamos (Greek: Πέργαμoς; Turkish: Beyarmudu) is a Turkish Cypriot village in Larnaca District, Cyprus, 4 km north of Pyla, almost surrounded by the British Sovereign Base Area (SBA) at Dhekelia.[3] Pergamos is under the de facto control of Northern Cyprus.
Under Ottoman rule it was in the Caza of Famagusta and initially remained so under British rule.[4] Around 1920 it was moved to Larnaca District.[5][6]
