Bitlis BC. It was the settlement area of the Urartians since 1400 BC. After the reign of Salmanassar I, one of the Assyrian Kings in 1280, the Urartians settled in the mountainous areas around Lake Van, 11th century BC. It continued to be the homeland of the Urartians until the 7th century, and remained under the rule of the Assyrians until the 7th century and the Medes until the 6th century. Bitlis was later captured by Darius II with the establishment of the Persian Kingdom. Bitlis, which came under the rule of Macedonian King Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC and was captured by the Roman Emperor Trajan in the 2nd century AD, remained under the Eastern Roman administration until the 7th century.
Bitlis, which became an important haunt during the Anatolian raids of the Turks that started with the 10th century, and hosted Alp Arslan and his armies in Ahlat during these dates, also played a very important role in the opening of the Turks to Anatolia. Bitlis, which was attacked by the Ayyubids in the 13th century and later by the Harzemshahs and the Mongols, and came under Ottoman rule with the Battle of Çaldıran in 1514, became a center of science, art and culture under the administration of the Ottoman Empire. Bitlis, which was under the occupation of Tsarist Russia for a while during the First World War, was made a province after the proclamation of the Republic. Bitlis got its name from Bedlis.
