Heliveh

Iran, Iran

---

Heliveh is a small village in Ilam Province, Iran, located in the Abanar Rural District of Kalat District, Abdanan County, near the town of Siah Gel and the nearby settlement of Kan‑e Ahmadkhan.

It is one of several rural places in Iran with names similar to “Heliveh,” “Halveh,” or “Helis,” and in this case the village is quite small, with a population recorded as only a few hundred people in the 2006 census, reflecting the typical scale and dispersed settlement pattern of rural Ilam. The area is characterized by mountainous terrain and nomadic and semi‑nomadic pastoral communities typical of the Zagros region, and like other villages in the region.

Heliveh functions mainly as a local agricultural and residential settlement rather than a tourist or urban center. Because information about Heliveh is limited in general sources, most details about it come from basic census and geographic listings, and any more specific local history, notable landmarks, or cultural features would usually be known only through local knowledge or detailed regional studies.
