History
[edit]Mardīsah (today called Kumluca) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Christians.[2] In the Syriac Orthodox patriarchal register of dues of 1870, it was recorded that the village had 7 households, who did not pay any dues, and did not have a church or a priest.[2]
It was burned by authorities in the early 1990s during the Kurdish–Turkish conflict.[4]
