THE NAME…MALATYA ??

In ancient times, the province Malatya given different names in different times such as

…… Maldiya, Milid or Meliddu.

Around 100 CE, Melitene was granted city status by the Roman Emperor and at the same time was in the process of becoming the Roman capital of Asia Minor.

After sometime, Melitene was completely destroyed by the Byzantine, only to be rebuilt under the instruction of Abbasid caliphs.

In 1838, modern Malatya was founded in a site that is in the South of the ancient settlement of Milid and Melitene (modern Battalgazi). However, the next year, the city had to be rebuilt, following the devastations of an earthquake.

Arslantepe, ancient Milid, used to be the capital of the Hittite kingdom. Scientific excavations that started in 1932 and are still continuing have revealed seven different layers dating back to the Calcolithic Age.

Today, the ancient remains constitute a palace (with statues and relics, few wall paintings and the remains of a Roman village. Battalgazi, early Melitene, has same historic value as it used to be an important center of Byzantine and Medieval period. The city walls of Battalgazi constructed by the Byzantine encompass the Ulu Mosque (1247), which was built by the Seljuks.
