    Hasankeyf is an ancient town located along the Tigris River in the Batman Province in southeastern Turkey. The town is an ancient settlement that has witnessed many civilizations from Bronze Age to present times (Hurrians, Assyrians, Persians, Romans, Byzantines, Seljuks, Ayyubids, Mamluks and Ottomans). Much of the city and its archeological sites are at risk of being flooded with the completion of the Ilisu Dam.
