Kabatepe Museum, 2006

Kabatepe, or Gaba Tepe,[1] is a headland overlooking the northern Aegean Sea in what is now the Gallipoli Peninsula National Historical Park (tr), on the Gallipoli peninsula in northwestern Turkey.

During the First World War, the headland was the site of an Ottoman artillery battery, known as "Beachy Bill,"[2] which constantly harassed the ANZAC troops around ANZAC Cove to the north throughout the Gallipoli Campaign.
