Dortayak in Aydıncık town (ancient Kelenderis) in Mersin Province, is a cenotaph (symbolic tomb, memorial monument) or mausoleum dates to the Roman Empire period, the second century AD. Locally known as Quadrupeds, because it has four large pillarscrownded with a pyramidal roof . The burial chamber should be in the lower crypt below, because there are no traces of burial on the open part of the structure. Neither the owner nor the founder of Dörtayak Mausoleum is known so there are some romantic stories attached to.
