History: We see a city structure dating back to 3,000 B.C. by the Luvi Civilization. Denizli, which was taken in 2,500 years, became a homeland for the Hittites, Frikians, Lydians, Persians, Macedonian Kingdom, Pergamon Kingdom, Roman State, Turks, Byzantines and Ottoman civilizations, and it has gained pieces from all these different cultures and has reached today.

We come across as other names of Denizli in historical sources. It was recorded as “Ladik” in the Seljuk records and “Tunguzlu” in the Travel Book of Ibni Batuta . Şerafettin Zemdi, who wrote Timurlenk’s victory, mentions two names, “Tenguzlug” and “Tonguzlug”. The word Tengiz means sea in ancient Turkish. Tunguzlu means Denizli with its current spelling. As a result, the name Denizli has taken its present form as the words Tenguzlu and Tunguzlu gradually became word-of-mouth, “Denizli”.
