Landscape in the Tektek mountains, near the village of Yağmurlu

The Tektek Mountains (Turkish: Tektek Dağları; also Tektek Dagh) are a range of mountains located east of Şanlıurfa (Urfa, formerly Edessa) in southeastern Turkey near the border with Syria.[1][2][3]

The Tektek Mountains are known for the proliferation of large stone markers and cairns at summit of every height.[1] There are also at least two ancient sites located there: Karahan Tepe and Sumatar Harabesi.
