“BİNGÖL” There Are Several Myths About the Origin of City's Name, And ORIGIN OF “BİNGÖL” There are several myths about the origin of city’s name, and all are based on healing waters or lakes. Historically, Bingöl is named Cebel-ü Cur, Çapakçur, Çapakçur, Çevlik/Çolig. The first name of Bingöl is known to be Çapakçur. Evliya Çelebi, in Seyahatname, states that Çapakçur is named and established by Alexander the Great. According to the myth, even consulting his doctors to relieve unberable pain of him, Alexander the Great can not heal. Thereon he starts to look for adam’s ale which is believed to give immortality. Although he can not find the adam’s ale, he explores a river, which is believed to be raised by adam’s ale. After drinking from that river and thus relieving from his pain, he names the area Çapakçur: “River of Heaven” and builds a castle by the riverside of Murat river. In Islamic literature Bingöl is named Cebel-ü Cur. As lexical meaning, Cebel means mountain and Cur means stream, river. It is said that Cebel-ü Cur has eventually became Çapakçur. Bingöl was also named Çevlik, which means garden, yard. Çevlik is still being used today as Çolig by locals. The city, which was named Çapakçur until 1945, has been named Bingöl since then-as inspired by Bingöl Mountains- due to a legal regulation. Photo 1: General View of Bingöl Photo 2 : Sunrise on Bingöl HISTORY Although Bingöl has a rich history, we know little about the pre-Islamic era of her. Hurrians, seen on Eastern Anatolia Region in 3000BC., spread on a wide region, and had political and military struggles with Hittites; and these affected Bingöl until 2000BC. In these dates, Azzi- Hayaşa Kingdom—settled on north Elazığ and Erzincan—and İşşua Kingdom—settled on south Elazığ—were affiliated to Hittites. Due to proximity to these kingdoms and being on transition area, Bingöl was affected by these kingdoms, both politically and culturally. With Hittites and Hurrians being withdrawn from the stage of history arround 1200BC., local principalities had started to dominate the area. Formed as little city-states, these principalities are stated as “Nairi States” in Assyrian sources. Nairi States form Urartu State by organizing as a confederation in 900BC., against attacks of strong Assyria Kingdom. At short notice, Urartians became one of the strongest and most organized states of it’s era and Bingöl became a city within the boundaries of Urartians. Urartians, forming an advanced civilization, built a wide range of road network to expand and control trade. Bingöl was on a strategic location in this road network, which connected east to west. Today, the most well-preserved part of the Urartian Path can be seen on wide plains in south of Bingöl-Elazığ main road. From this point, the Road— approximately 5.40m width—lies on a route towards west, through Karakoçan-Palu-Harput to Malatya. Urartians built outposts on strategic points to secure the road network and trade. There are still some castle ruins—which has been built as Urartian outposts— and they can be seen on commanding heights along Urartian Path. Photo 3: Urartu Path After the collapse of Urartu State in 600BC., the region was dominated in turn by; Meds, Persians and Komagenes. Bingöl, which was ruled by Roman Empire in 100BC., fell under Byzantium Empire boundaries by separation of Roman Empire. The region was ruled by Byzantium Empire who dominated principalities untill 1000AC. Zağ Caves, close to Kuşburnu Village in central, were secret place for local Christians to live and worship around 500AC. Photo4 : Kiğı Çanakçı Surp Giragos Church The city, which was dominated by Seljuk Empire after Battle of Manzikert in 1071, was dominated in turn by; Artuqids, Ayyubids, Ilkhanids, Kara Koyunlus and Ak Koyunlus untill the Ottoman period. From 1080 to 1121, the region was captured by Artuqids. After Artuqids, Ayyubids and Ilkhanids dominated the region for a short period, which was followed by Ak Koyunlu’s domination on the region. Ak Koyunlus-with the domination and strength they had in 1400- left significant artifacts especially in Kiğı, Adaklı and Genç. After defeat of Uzun Hassan in Battle of Otlukbeli in 1474 by Mehmed the Conqueror, the region started to be ruled by Ottomans. Although Shah İsmail captured the region after Mehmed the Conqueror’s death, after his defeat in Battle of Çaldıran by Selim I region was ruled by Ottomans again. Bingöl completely fell under Ottoman boundaries in 1515. Photo 5 : Selenk Bridge With The Republic, Bingöl became a province in 1936, and in 1945, its name has been changed from Çapakçur to Bingöl. ABOUT BİNGÖL Surrounded by provinces Erzincan and Erzurum in north, Muş in east, Diyarbakır in south, Elazığ and Tunceli in west, Bingöl is on Iran Transit Route-which is one of the main highways from east to west. The city, which is in Upper Euphrates Side of Eastern Anatolian Region, has 1151m of altitude and 8125,3km2 of survey. Bingöl has 8 counties, 11 municipalities, and 319 villages. It’s total population in 2014 is 266.019 and the distribution of its population is shown in chart below: COUNTIES POPULATION Central 147.087 Genç 34.894 Solhan 33.256 Adaklı 8.905 Karlıova 31.467 Kiğı 5.496 Yayladere 1.957 Yedisu 2.957 As well as the climate changes depending on counties and topograhy, Bingöl has a continental climate. With hot, arid summers and cold, harsh winters , average annual temperature is 12 °C. Glacial lakes on Bingöl Mountains indicates that the region was once covered with glaciers in Ice Age. Bingöl mostly has rough and high terrains, which is occupied by hills and mountains higher than 2000m. Its highest mountain is Bingöl Mountains with it’s 3250m height. Bingöl is one of the cities in Eastern Anatolian Region that has the richest forestland . FLOATING ISLAND Floating Island, located on Aksakal Lake Field of Hazerşah Village in Solhan County, can be reached by Hazerşah Village’s road, which is turning to north on approximately 65.km of Bingöl- Solhan-Muş main road. Floating Island is discovered by local people and has a unique natural beauty. Floating Island is completely natural and located on a plain that surrounded by mountains and hills on its three sides. There are three completely separate islands on the lake and each of them are motile. With its great nature, extraordinary view and fresh air indigenous to Bingöl uplands Floating Island is not just a picnic site, it is a must-see place in entire region. Photo 6: Floating Island SUNRISE ON KALA HİLL As a part of Bingöl Mountains and with its 3250m height, you can reach to its falls by road. Especially from 15th of July to 15th of August in every year, significant number of domestic and foreign tourists visit the hill, where they can watch sunrise. On this hill, sun makes people feel unusual emotions when it starts to rise. Appearing as a glow at first, the sun makes a colourful harmony from darkness to ember untill it is fully formed and arouses feelings like fear, thrill, enthusiasm, astonishment and admiration. Not just for the sunrise as an unique and fascinating natural event, also for its natural beauty Kala Hill is a must-see place of the region. Photo 7: Sunrise ÇIR FALL 8km to Ilıcalar town in central, Çır Fall has an impressive natural beauty by its appearance. The area—with Big Çır Rock in it—has rocky terrains and natural caves, where birds of prey live. The area also gains importance as a wildlife area. Photo 8: Çır Fall ZAĞ CAVES Zağ Caves can be reached by Gökçeli-Kuşburnu Village’s road, which is on approximately 18.km of Bingöl-Solhan-Muş main road. Zağ Caves consist of rooms that spread on front site of natural rocky mass. These rooms are artifactual, connected with stepped passages and multiplex. The caves are dated to 400BC.—Early Christian Era. In this era, Zağ Caves were a living space and a prayer place for Christian communities that were under pressure of Roman Empire. From the first room in lower floor by following stepped passages and staircases you can reach to top floor. Including lower floor, the caves have a total of five floors. Some of rooms have been coated with cube shaped pits carved into base of bedrock, which are used as grain and liquid storage. Some of the pits are also used as offering pits, and terraces can be seen in some rooms. From these, it is understood that some of the rooms were used as daily living place, some as kitchen/storage and some as prayer place.

  • Contribution to the Knowledge of Snakeflies (Raphidioptera) of Turkey
    Annals of the Upper Silesian Museum (Entomology) 14-15: 43–58. Bytom 29.12.2007 ROLAND DOBOSZ Contribution to the knowledge of snakeflies (Raphidioptera) of Turkey Abstract. The faunistic review of 24 species and subspecies of Raphidioptera of Turkey including new data is given. Their occurrence is given based on original literature data. Six species – Pheostigma (Phe- ostigma) pilicollis, Pheostigma (Crassoraphidia) cyprica, Pheostigma (Pontoraphidia) rhodopica, Di- chrostigma flavipes, Xanthostigma xanthostigma, Parainocellia (Parainocellia) braueri are recorded as new for Turkish fauna. Key words: Insecta, Neuropterida, Raphidioptera, new data, faunistics, Turkey. The Raphidioptera is a small order of Neuropterida. The order comprises only two fam- ilies: Raphidiidae and Inoceliidae, it contains more than 215 species in the world. The range of Raphidioptera covers the Holarctic, except the north-eastern parts of North America. All Raphidioptera represents arboreal faunal elements (ASPÖCK, 1987; ASPÖCK et al. 1991). The Western Palaearctic harbors the highest number of species (about 110). Most of them are restricted to small areas. Before the year 1960, snakeflies of Turkey were very poorly investigated. The history of research on Raphidioptera of Turkey was limited to a few papers, mainly with descrip- tion of the new taxa (ALBARDA, 1891; NAVÁS, 1914, 1915; ESBEN-PETERSEN, 1932). More organised exploration and research on this group of insects started at the beginning of the nineteen sixties. FRANZ RESSL, HUBERT RAUSCH and URLIKE & HORST ASPÖCK carried several expeditions to Anatolia, which were particularly devoted to field work on Raphidioptera of Turkey. This huge material, investigated with respect to its taxonomy, systematics, biology and chorology is presented in few publications (ASPÖCK H., 1987; ASPÖCK H.

  • An Ethnobotanical Study in Midyat (Turkey), a City on the Silk Road Where Cultures Meet Ali Akgul1*, Ayfer Akgul2, Serdar G
    Akgul et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2018) 14:12 DOI 10.1186/s13002-017-0201-8 RESEARCH Open Access An ethnobotanical study in Midyat (Turkey), a city on the silk road where cultures meet Ali Akgul1*, Ayfer Akgul2, Serdar G. Senol3, Hasan Yildirim3, Ozcan Secmen4 and Yunus Dogan5 Abstract Background: Studies of ethnobotanical usages in south-eastern Turkey are rare. To widen this field of knowledge, we conducted an ethnobotanical study in Midyat (Mardin Province), Turkey. Methods: The field study was completed during three years (2007–2010). Our aim was to document the ethnobotanical uses of local plants and to make an ethnobotanical inventory of uncommon plants using qualitative interviews. Results: During field studies, 368 voucher specimens were collected in the investigated area. Ninety-two traditionally used plant species were reported from Midyat and surrounding vicinities in Turkey. Among the 92 taxa (129 usages), 35% were used for medical purposes, 22% for food, 13% for animal fodder, 7% as ornamental plants and dyes, 6% as brooms, 4% for latex and as fragrance, 4% for herbal tea, molasses and wine preparation, 3% for agricultural purposes, and 6% for other purposes. Comparative assessment showed that Teucrium polium (0.51), Matricaria aurea (0.26), Alcea setosa (0.21), and Malva neglecta (0.21) have the highest recorded UVs, and the following taxa had UVs between 0.10–0.20: Anthemis cotula (0.12), Allium cepa (0.13), Alcea striata subsp. striata (0.14), Crupina crupinastrum (0.12), Papaver rhoeas (0.13), Salvia multicaulis (0.14), Thymbra spicata (0.11), and Vicia pannonica subsp.

  • Geology of Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia
    GEOLOGY OF EASTERN AND SOUTHEASTERN ANATOLIA İ. Enver ALTINLI Technical University of Istanbul INTRODUCTION. — The geological sheets to a scale of 1:100,000, mostly accompanied by professional reports, accomplished since the creation of the Mineral Research and Exploration Institute of Turkey (M.T.A. in short and in Turkish), are at present intended for a Geologic Map of Turkey to a scale of 1:500,000 in 21 sheets. Since 1954 the present author spent two years for each of the Van, Cizre and Erzurum sheets, doing actual field investigation, control, correlation, and compilation. The results now permit a comprehensive short paper for Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia, organized accord- ing to the known structural regions, which lays the foundations for detailed stratigraphic and structural future investigations. The writer is most indebted to the authorities of the M.T.A. Institute for assigning to him the study of this highly intricate and little known sector of the country, as well as for permitting him to publish the results in a reorganized form. The accompanying black and white geologic and tectonic maps need to be colored for better understanding. A long and irregular strip is missing in the base maps to the NE of Siirt province, and furthermore an offset is involved; these gaps must be taken into consideration in reading the geologic and tectonic maps, where the link is processed by dotted lines. GEOGRAPHY General The accompanying sketch map shows the natural regions and districts; almost the whole of the Eastern Anatolian region together with Upper Fırat (Euphrates) district, Erzurum - Kars district, Upper Murat district, Van district and Hakkari district, and the northern sector of the Southeastern Anatolian region together with Middle Fırat district, Dicle (Tigris) district enter into the area under discussion.

Özet Bu çalışmada, Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi’ne düşen aylık ve yıllık toplam yağışların trend analizinin araştırılması hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla, Meteoroloji Genel Müdürlüğü’nün 46 adet yağış gözlem istasyonundan alınan, 1960 ile 2013 yılları arasında değişen, verilere Run testi ve Pettitt testi uygulanarak homojenlik analizi yapılmıştır. Homojen olduğu belirlenen istasyonlara Mann – Kendall testi ve Spearman’ın Rho testi uygulanarak trend analizi incelenmiş, Sen’in eğim metodu kullanılarak trendlerin eğimi belirlenmiştir. Aylık toplam yağışların trend analizi değerlendirildiğinde yaz aylarında genellikle yağışların artan yönde eğilimde olduğu, kış aylarında ise azalan yönde eğilimde olduğu görülmüştür. Yazın Haziran ayında bölgede azalan yönde bir eğilim hâkimken, Temmuz ayında yerini artan yönde bir eğilime bırakmaktadır. Kasım ayı olduğunda ise bölgeye düşen aylık toplam yağışlarda tekrardan azalan yönde eğilim hakim olmaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi, Trend Analizi, Mann–Kendall Testi, Spearman Rho Testi, Sen Eğim Metodu.
