Tunna or Dunna (Hittite: 𒌷𒁺𒌦𒈾[1]) was an ancient Anatolian city located at the foothills of the Taurus Mountains, near the town of Ulukışla and the Cilician Gates in southern Cappadocia.[2][3][4]

In classical antiquity Tunna was known as Tynna,[5] and it is known in the present-day as Porsuk Höyük[6] or Zeyve Höyük.[7]
