Küstülü (former Yanıkköy) is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Erdemli, Mersin Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 751 (2022).[2] It is 30 kilometres (19 mi) north west of Erdemli and about 65 kilometres (40 mi) west of Mersin. Even though the village was founded in 1790 by a Turkmen tribe named Elbeyli, there are traces of ancient civilizations around the village (See Üçayaklı ruins). Küstüllü is a dispersed settlement due to a shortage of irrigation water. The villages' main economic activity is farming. Tomato cucumber and beans are among the main crops. Fruits like plum, peach and apple are also produced.[3]
