According to mayor's page the original name was Çepni (referring to a branch of Oghuz Turks); but eventually the word Çepni was corrupted to Çetmi.[5] It is a secluded town situated in Toros Mountains. The distance to Taşkent is 20 kilometres (12 mi) and to Konya is 155 kilometres (96 mi).The sole road to the town passes through a narrow pass.
