Where was the battle of Devil's Den located?

If you're talking about the American Civil War, I assume you are referring to Devils Den in Gettysburg. There was no 'battle of Devils Den." The Devils Den formed part of the defensive line of Union General Sickles' on day two of the battle. The Confederate captured the Den when they crushed the Union defenses and drove the Union survivors back onto the Wheat Field and Little Round Top. The Confederates used the Den as a base for sharpshooters for the remainder of the battle.
