Kızılırmak River
Purushanda (also variously Puruskhanda, Purushhattum or Burushattum) was an ancient city-state in central Anatolia, lying south of the Kızılırmak River in what is now modern Turkey. Its site has yet to be discovered. It may have been situated south-east of Lake Tuz, possibly on the mound of Acemhöyük (located at the village of Yeşilova, Aksaray) approximately north-west of the city of Aksaray. Another possible location is the mound of Karahöyük near Konya.
