Kırahmetler is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Gazipaşa, Antalya Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 215 (2022).[2]

The name of the neighborhood derives from a Yörük chieftain named Kır Ahmet, and the Kırahmetler are the most recent Yörük tribe to settle in Gazipaşa. They established the village of Kırahmetler by purchasing the lands they used as winter pastures. The Kırahmetler tribe refers to itself as "Abdil Uşağı" and is divided into three groups: "Hasan Uşağı," "Kara Yusuf Uşağı," and the main Kırahmetler group. These three groups constitute three different branches of the Bağşı Tribe. In essence, the Kırahmetler are associated with the Bağış[3] Tribe of the Kyrgyz people, and due to the similarity in names, they are often confused with the "Bahşiş" tribe, which is descended from the Oğuz lineage. Abdil Bey is recognized as the ancestor of the Kırahmetler tribe and is sometimes linked to the Karamanoglu[4] feudal lords in certain studies. However, according to sources, Abdil Bey came from the Cumania region to the Erzurum area. The tribe lived under the rule of the Karakoyunlu for a while and later settled in the Çukurova-Taşkale region. Over time, they migrated from this region to Anamur and then to the vicinity of Gazipaşa. Abdil Bey[5] had three sons named Abdil, Hasan, and Yusuf, with Kırahmet Bey, the son of Abdil Bey, being recognized today as the eponymous ancestor of this neighborhood. Additionally, the affiliated tribes of Kırahmetler reside in Muzkent, Tosalak, Alanya Sugözü, and Kaş in Antalya, with Gazipaşa being their main settlement.
