KILLIS

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 796 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KILLIS , a
town
  of N. Syria, in the vilayet of Aleppo, 6o in. N. of Aleppo
city
 . It is situated in an extremely fertile plain, and is completely surrounded with
olive
  groves, the produce of which is reckoned the finest oil of all Syria; and its position on the
carriage
 -road from Aleppo to
Aintab
  and Birejik gives it importance. The
population
  (20,000) consists largely of Circassians, Turkomans and
Arabs
 , the
town
  lying just on the northern rim of the Arab territory. As Killis lies also very near the proposed junction of the
Bagdad
  and the Beirut-Aleppo
railways
  (at Tell Habesh), it is likely to increase in importance.
