Akpınar is a town in Kırşehir Province in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey.

[1] According to the article by Abdulbaki Uçan, "İkiztepe Tümülüsü ve Hitit aydınlığı"[3] Akpınar was founded by the primitive clans of the pre-Hittites.

In the environs of Akpınar some artificial mounds support Uçan's assumption.

In 1986 Tsugio Mikami and Sachihiro Omura were in the vicinity of Akpınar under the aegis of the Japan Middle Eastern Culture Center and found some ruins of the Iron Age and Bronze Age in the surface levels at Akpınar Höyük.
