The name "Elbistan" was pronounced similarly in Byzantine and Islamic sources. Elbistan was known as Plasta and Plastentia (Greek : Πλαστεντία ) in antiquity. Elbistan was known as Ablasta (Armenian : Աբլաստա ) according to Armenian historians in the early 11th century. According to Baldric of Dol the city was known as "Ablistan" till 15th century. Egyptian -Mamluk historian Muhammad ibn Iyas wrote the city's name as "Albistan" . Alaüddevle Bozkurt Bey from Dulkadirids used the name "Elbistan" in the official documents. After Dulkadirids were conquered by the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, the current name became prevalent. Among the rural people of Elbistan it is pronounced as "Albıstan" . Albistan means "the orchard" in Arabic.[7]

The settlement of the Elbistan plain around the town of Elbistan goes back to prehistoric times. In 1947, an important Anatolian hieroglyphic inscription stele was discovered near the village of Karahüyük (Elbistan) , which is located 9 km northwest from Elbistan town. This stele is believed to be from the 12th century BC.[8]
In the mid-10th century, modern settlement of the area begins. The town seems to have been settled first by Armenian immigrants.[9] Armenian bishop .[9] First Crusade passed through Anatolia recovering land for the Byzantine Empire in 1097, Peter Aliphas was installed as governor of Plastentia.[10]
In 1277 the Mamluks led by Baybars defeated a Mongol army in the Battle of Elbistan . Thereafter, Elbistan and the region around it became part of the Mamluk northern frontier.[11] Zeyneddin Karaca Bey captured the town from the Mamluks and established the Beylik of Dulkadir with the region around Elbistan and Marash as its center.[12] [11] [12]
