Mavana (Persian: موانا)[a] is a village in, and the capital of, Targavar Rural District of Silvaneh District of Urmia County, West Azerbaijan province, Iran.

[4] While historically Assyrian, the village is populated by Herki Kurds today.

[5][6] At the time of the 2006 National Census, the village's population was 1,134 in 179 households.

[2] The name Mavana, which in Syriac is pronounced Ma-wa-na, comes from the words "Em-ma Wane" (ܐܸܡܵܐ ܥܘܵܢܹ̈ܐ) meaning "100 ewes/sheep".

[9] The meaning of the village name could point to Mavana being originally settled by sheep herders.
