history

From 1375 Zeytun was first under the domination of the Dulkadir , later under the Ottomans an Armenian Beylik. The residents resisted the massacres of the Armenians in 1894–1896 . The name of the place was changed from Zeytun to Yeni Şehir and then to Süleymanlı in the Ottoman period . Süleymanlı is named after the Turkish major Süleyman who occupied the village in 1915 during the Armenian genocide .

The original name in late Byzantine times was Ulnia ("with olives"). The name Zeytun is the Turkish spelling of the Arabic equivalent.
