Chufut-Kale (Ukrainian: Chufut-Kale, krymskotat. Çufut Qale) or Kyrk-Or (krymskotat. Qırq Or)- medieval fortress city in the Crimea, ancestral fortress of the famous Crimean ruler Janike is located on a mountain plateau 2.5 km east of Bakhchisaray. The rocky slopes are quite steep, only on one side there is a hiking trail to the flat top.
The fortress was first mentioned in 1254 as Kyrk-Er (krymskotat. Qırq Yer), which translates from Turkic as "forty castles".
On the site of Kyrk-Or, presumably, there was a Byzantine city that arose around the V—VI centuries as a fortified settlement on the border of the Byzantine possessions. There is a version that its fortifications were built by Byzantine engineers in two stages (between 530/550 and 560/580) to protect the strategically important defiles of Maryam Dere and Ashlam Dere, and to strengthen the defense of the distant approaches to Kherson, but there are no direct references to the city before 1253.
