Typallia is located on a steep, rocky hill north of the village of Çitdibi, approximately 30 km from Antalya. It lies at a road junction between Trebenna and Kitanaura. Although the ruins were first visited by Spratt and Forbes, the identification of the site as Typallia was first proposed by Stephen Mitchell and has since been confirmed by inscriptions discovered at the site.
As the site has not yet been excavated, very few identifiable architectural remains are preserved. Apart from the acropolis entrance, terrace walls, and sarcophagi, the only structure whose function can be determined is a small Roman bath.
