A [[pentapolis]] (from Greek πεντα- penta-, 'five' and πόλις polis, 'city') is a geographic and/or institutional grouping of five cities.

* The Western Pentapolis: five main Greek colonies that came to be in the Roman province of Libya Superior, the western part of [[Cyrenaica]] until Diocletian's Tetrarchy reform in AD 296 (now Libya). The most important was [[Cyrene]] and its port [[Apollonia]], [[Ptolemais]] (the next capital after Cyrene's destruction by an earthquake), port of [[Barca]] (the later Arab provincial capital Barka), [[Teucheira]] (modern Tocra) and [[Berenice]] (modern Benghazi); also known as the Pentapolis inferior ("lower pentapolis"'). This is the Pentapolis that is referenced in the official title of the Eastern Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria and the Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church. | * The Western Pentapolis: five main Greek colonies that came to be in the Roman province of Libya Superior, the western part of [[Cyrenaica]] until Diocletian's Tetrarchy reform in AD 296 (now Libya).
