[Byz: Kastron Melouos; Arm: Molivon, Mōlovon, or Mawlovon] is
a fortified monastery with a tetraconch church, possibly of Byzantine
construction, with a period of Armenian construction and military
occupation. This site has
inter-visibility with Anahşa and is above the strategic route connecting
Cilicia Pedias to Pozantı and Cappadocia.
