Pousa (II) from the kindred Türje (Hungarian: Türje nembeli (II.) Pósa; died 1323 or 1324) was a Hungarian cleric at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, who served as Provost of Veszprém from 1312 until his death.
Pousa (II) was born into the Bér branch of the gens (clan) Türje, which originated from Zala County and possessed landholdings mostly in Transdanubia. His father was Pousa (I), who held his permanent residence in Bér. He had three brothers, Nicholas, John and Mark. The latter two were ancestors of the Béri and Orbonai noble families, respectively.[1]
