An ancient place in Van province, Turkey. It had a street grid, fortifications of mud brick on a polygonal masonry foundation, and at least 14 building inscriptions in Aramaic from the Parthian period. Professor Rafet Çavuşoğlu began a program of excavations in 2021, which appears to be unpublished as of October 2025.
