'''Tadamata''' (or '''Tadama''') was a town in the [Roman province](/source/Roman_province) of [Mauretania Caesariensis](/source/Mauretania_Caesariensis).

It was also the seat of a [bishopric](/source/bishopric) that, no longer being a residential see, is included in the [Catholic Church](/source/Catholic_Church)'s list of [titular see](/source/titular_see)s.<ref>''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 2013, {{ISBN|978-88-209-9070-1}}), p. 980</ref>

Its bishop David is mentioned among the bishops of Mauretania Cæsariensis in the ''[Notitiae episcopatuum](/source/Notitiae_episcopatuum)'' of 482. He is also 105th in the list of the bishops of that province whom [Huneric](/source/Huneric)  summoned to the [Synod of Carthage (484)](/source/Synod_of_Carthage_(484)) and subsequently exiled. David's name is followed by the word ''probatus'', showing that he died in exile for his Catholic faith.<ref>Stefano Antonio Morcelli, [https://books.google.com/books?id=dO4-AAAAcAAJ&pg=PA297 ''Africa christiana''], Volume I, Brescia 1816, p.&nbsp;297</ref><ref>[http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14429a.htm Sophrone Pétridès, "Tadama"] in ''Catholic Encyclopedia'' (New York 1912)</ref>
