Chatos or Tziaos (Greek: Τζιάος or Κιάδος; Turkish: Serdarlı or Çatoz) is a Turkish Cypriot village in Cyprus, located 3 km north of Marathovounos.[3] It is under the de facto control of the illegal Northern Cyprus, as is the northern 38% of the island, which is illegally occupied by the Turkish military, following the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974.
