Harran (Akkadian: Harrânu; Ancient Greek: Κάῤῥαι; Latin: Carrhae), is a district of Şanlıurfa Province in the southeast of Turkey.
A very ancient city which was a major Mesopotamian commercial, cultural, and religious center, Harran is a valuable archaeological site. It is often identified as Haran, the place in which Abraham lived before he reached Canaan. |
