Town of ancient Cappadocia
Archalla (Greek: Άρχαλλα) was a town of ancient Cappadocia, inhabited during Roman times.[1]
Its site is tentatively located near Erkilet(Under Kocasinan), Asiatic Turkey.[1][2] Although only attested in ancient times, it was presumably inhabited continuously through Byzantine times and into the present day, since its name is preserved in the current name Erkilet.[3] The façade of the extant Mehmed Paşa Camii mosque in Erkilet is built partly using ancient remains as spolia.[3]
