The Penkalas Bridge (completed 2century) is a Roman bridge over the Penkalas (today Kocaçay), a small tributary of the Rhyndakos (Adirnas Çayi), in Aezani (Aizanoi), Asia Minor (Çavdarhisar in present-day Turkey).The 2nd-century AD structure was once one of four ancient bridges in Aezani and is assumed to have been the most important crossing-point due to its central location in the vicinity of the Zeus temple and the direct access it provided to the Roman road to Cotyaeum (Kütahya).
