Mama Hatun Türbesi in Tercan/Erzincan Province, Turkey. Melike Mama Hatun, or simply Mama Hatun, was a female ruler of the Saltukid dynasty, with its capital in Erzurum, for an estimated nine years between 1191 to 1200. During her reign she had a caravanserai, a mosque, a bridge, and a hammam built in the town of Tercan, located between Erzincan and Erzurum, which are still standing and are named after her.
