Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Zippalanda was a Hattic administrative and religious center of the Hittite Old Kingdom. Although its name was known from inscriptions, it was not until the latter 20th century that scholars placed it in Sorgun District of Yozgat Province, Turkey, near Kerkenes Dağ (Kerkenes Mountain often identified with Mount Daha (Mount Taha)), about one day's journey north of Ankuwa (present-day Alışar Höyük).

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Zippalanda (Ziplanda, Zipalda) war eine hethitische Stadt in Zentralanatolien. Ihre Lage ist umstritten. Maciej Popko will sie Alaca Höyük gleichsetzen, Ronald L. Gorny bevorzugt Kuşaklı Höyük bzw. Uşaklı Höyük (nicht zu verwechseln mit Kuşaklı Höyük, welches sicher mit der hethitischen Stadt Šarišša identifiziert wurde) in der Provinz Sivas und seit neuestem Çadır Höyük im Tal des Kanak Su.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Zippalanda (ou Ziplanda) est une ancienne cité du royaume des Hittites, située dans l'Anatolie centrale, sur le site d’Uşakli Höyük. Les textes hittites nous apprennent que Zippalanda était un lieu de culte majeur, dédié au Dieu de l'Orage, la divinité principale des panthéons de l'Anatolie antique, qui y disposait d'un grand temple. Plusieurs des fêtes religieuses majeures du pays hittite y avaient lieu, comme les grandes fêtes du printemps (purulli et AN.TAH.ŠUM). Le roi participait à ces célébrations, et disposait d'un palais dans la cité qu'il occupait durant ces périodes. Le Dieu de l'Orage de Zippalanda était également vénéré à la montagne Daha, qui voisinait la ville, peut-être l'actuel Kerkenes Dağ.
