Nerik (Hittite: Nerik(ka)[1]) was a Bronze Age settlement to the north of the Hittite capitals Hattusa and Sapinuwa, probably in the Pontic region.[2] Since 2005–2009, the site of Nerik has been identified as Oymaağaç Höyük,[3] on the eastern side of the Kızılırmak River, 7 km (4.3 mi) northwest of Vezirköprü.
