History
Tell Turlu (Turlu Höyük) is ca. 7 km northwest of Nizip (Gaziantep Province, Turkey), near the modern village Turlu. In 2003, a basalt stele of the Assyrian official Bēl-iddin (reign of Sargon II; r. 721–705 BC) was discovered there. The ancient name of this large site, which was occupied in the Neolithic Period, is not known.
