   Bergaeus is only known from his coins. He was a contemporary and neighbour of Saratocus. A lesser thraco-macedonian dynast, he probably ruled in the region of mount Pangaion. From the similarity of some coins with thasian iconography it is sometimes believed that Thasos was also part of his territories.
[Peter (1994)]
