From Wikipedia
Yerleşim yerinin tarihi Roma dönemine kadar uzanır. Eski hristiyanlık merkezidir. Önceden kullanılan isimleri, Klaneos (Claneus) ya da Miscamus (Miskamit) olarak belirtilmiştir. Fakat Miscamus isminin Yavaşlı'ya ait olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Türklerin Anadolu'ya yerleşmesi sırasında ismini aldığı Turgut Bey'in kontrolüne geçmiştir. Daha sonra Turgutoğulları'nın merkezi olmuştur.
