    The area has probably been inhabited since Hittite times and was then part of ancient Cilicia. At the time of the Roman Empire, the city of Claudiopolis was near Mut. The Romans were succeeded by the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia. In the 13th century the Turkish Karamanids followed, who founded the Principality of Karaman. Around 1800, despite its pasha residence, Mut was almost entirely a town in ruins, the residents "half naked and almost starving".
    Like other places in the area, Courage claims to house the tomb of the folk poet Karacaoğlan.
