Acilisene
Template:Short description Acilisene (Template:Langx), known as Ekegheats or Yekeghyats (Template:Langx) in Armenian, was a region of the Upper Armenia province of historical Armenia. It was a strip of land along the Upper Euphrates or Arsanias roughly corresponding to today's Erzincan Province of Turkey. Its main cities were Erznka (today's Erzincan, Turkey) and Ani-Kamakh (today's Kemah, Turkey) near the ancient necropolis of the Arsacid kings of Armenia.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The Erznka valley, crossed by the Upper Euphrates, was the location of the most important pre-Christian shrine in Armenia, dedicated to the Armenian goddess Anahit. The temple, whose site has not yet been identified, was in a settlement called Erez. Because of its association with the goddess, the region was also called {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} ('of Anahit', corresponding to the Latin {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}, itself from {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}, the name of the goddess in Latin and Greek classical sources).<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
Under the Arsacid dynasty, it was one of the properties of the house of Gregory the Illuminator (the Gregorids) and was sometimes called {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} ('district of the Illuminator').<ref name=":2">Template:Cite book</ref>
