House of Tleseruk (also referred to as Tleseruk) (Russian: Тлецерук, Turkish: Tletseruk/Tleseruk Ailesi) is a prehistoric Circassian family lineage belonging to the Shapsug tribe of the Adyghe,[1] one of the indigenous peoples of the northwestern Caucasus. Before the Circassian genocide, they lived in the Tuapse region of Krasnodar Krai and the Lazarevsky district of Sochi. Today, the majority of them live in the Pseytuk village of the Republic of Adygea, and in the Aydın, Afyon, İzmir, Çanakkale, Adapazarı, Çorum, Yozgat, Samsun, Balıkesir and Düzce provinces of Turkey.
