Kızıltepe (Kurdish: Qoser, Template:Lang-ota or Tell-Ermen (meaning "Armenian hill"),[1] Arabic: دنيصر‎) is a town in, and a district of Mardin Province of Turkey. As of 2014, the town had a population of 225,888. Most of the people are Kurds but there are some Arabs, Turks (who came here for government business) and Christians make up the population.

The town has a historic 13th century great Friday mosque built by the Artukids. It was also the scene of clashes between protesting Kurds and Turkish riot police in 2006.[2]
