Kummanni was the name of the main center of the Anatolian kingdom of Kizzuwatna. Its location is uncertain, but it may have been near the classical settlement of Comana in Cappadocia.
Recent research also proposed as a location Sirkeli Höyük in Plain Cilicia. Since then, some additional evidence has been discussed indicating that Kummanni was located in Cilicia at Sirkeli Höyük. (The distance between Comana and Cilicia is not that great.)
