Tlos was an ancient Lycian city located near the Seydikemer district of Muğla today. Tlos Ancient City, one of the most important settlements of Lycia, is located within the borders of Yaka Village, approximately 42 km east of Fethiye District. The ancient settlement, which starts on the steep western slopes of Akdağlar (Kragos), the highest mountains of the region, reaches the valley plain formed by the alluviums brought by the Eşen River. In addition, Saklıkent Canyon in the south and Kemer Town in the north draw the sovereignty borders of the ancient city.
The ancient neighbors of the city, which stands out with its defensible mountainous terrain and dominant position over the Eşen Plain, include the cities of Araxa in the north, Wiyanawanda (Oinoanda) in the northeast, Kadyanda in the northwest, Awarna (Xanthos) in the south, Pina (Pınara) in the southwest and Atriya (Telmessos) in the west. Thus, it is understood that the settlement of Tlos spread over a wider geography than any other Lycian city, which is why the term "country" was used for Tlos instead of "city" in Hittite sources. Although the country expression used for the Ancient City of Tlos seems surprising. However, it is known from the unearthed inscriptions that the ancient city consisted of many districts and neighborhoods and that there were many village settlements connected to the center around it.
Tlos is the Hellenized version of the name Tlava, which was given to the city by the Lycians, one of the indigenous people of the region. The name of the city is mentioned as Dalava in Hittite documents.
