Eğlen is a village in the Polateli District, Kilis Province, Turkey.[1] The village is inhabited by Turkicized Kurds of the Delikan, Pazuki, and Reşwan tribes, Turkmens of the Çavuşlu tribe, and Fellah Arabs.[2][3][4] It had a population of 75 in 2022.[5]
In late 19th century, German orientalist Martin Hartmann listed the village as a settlement of 10 houses inhabited by Kurds.[6] The Kurdish population migrated to the region from Besni, while the village later received Arab migration from al-Bab.[2]
