Mazılık is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Aladağ, Adana Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 88 (2022).[2] The most direct route from Adana is via Imamoğlu.
The village of Mazılık is at the site of a once thriving late antique/Byzantine settlement. In 1982 an archaeological assessment and accurate plan of the small, but impressive basilica were published.[3] The church consists of an apse, flanking apsidioles, and a two-storey rectangular nave with now collapsed upper-level galleries. It probably dates back to the late 5th to the early 6th century A.D. An extensive photographic survey and plan was completed for this publication.[4]
