Name

The name of the village during the Ottoman Era was generally known as Masad, although it had varied spellings, such as “مصاد” (Maṣād), “ماساد” (Māsād), “مساد” (Masād), “مصعاد” (Maṣˁād) and “ماساط” (Māsāṭ).[6] After 1959, the name of the village became Yıldırım, but the name did not last long and was not frequently used. The former name, Masat, has since replaced Yıldırım in 1990s.[7]

Geography
