Hiyu

Cappadocia region M.S. In the 3rd century, the region became a center of education, religion and thought with the Christian people who settled here. However, M.S. Between the years 303-308, the pressure of the Roman Empire on the people of the region increased and the people built shelters and settlements carved into the rocks in deep valleys to hide from this oppression, persecution and invasion.

Again M.S. In the 11th and 12th centuries, Arab raids first dominated the region, and then the Seljuks dominated the region. In the later periods, during the last Ottoman Empire period, peace prevailed in the region and after the Treaty of Lausanne, between 1924 and 1926, the Christian people here immigrated and left Cappadocia.
