Melda ERMİŞ* ABSTRACT Darkale, which was included in the Mysia region in Antiquity, was within the territorium of Pergamon, an important city of the Roman Empire after the Kingdom of Pergamon. When the Roman Empire was divided into two parts, the area became a part of the Eastern Roman Empire. The plains irrigated by River Kaikos (Bakırçay) enriched the region while Tırhala Mountain remained as fortified defence. Owing to its advantageous location, Darkale must have been an important settlement during the Byzantine Period as well. This settlement was especially included in the theme of Neokastra in order to stop Turkish raids into Western Anatolia, and also to reinforce regional defense and protect the settlements. There are various opinions on the Byzantine Period settlement in Darkale. Germe, Thrakoula and Khliara are possibilities on which the researchers dwell. Although we do not possess the epigraphic data necessary to positively define the settlement in Darkale, etymological change of its name, historical development and architectural remains of a defence system in the area from the Byzantine Period support the possibility of Khliara. STRUCTURED ABSTRACT The exact date of settlement in Darkale, which is currently a village within the town of Soma in the city of Manisa, is not clear; however, there are varied opinions on its presence and name during the Byzantine Period. This paper discusses the situation in the area around Darkale within the historical process, reviews the debate on the settlement, and introduces the remains in Darkale from the Byzantine Period. * Yrd. Doç. Dr. İstanbul Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Sanat Tarihi Bölümü, El-mek: [email protected] 60 Ü. Melda ERMİŞ Darkale, included in the Mysia region in Antiquity, was within the territorium of Pergamon, an important city of the Kingdom of Pergamon and the Roman Empire. When the Roman Empire was divided into two parts, the area became a part of the Eastern Roman Empire. The plains irrigated by River Kaikos (Bakırçay) enriched the region while Tırhala Mountain remained as fortified defence. Owing to its advantageous location, Darkale must have been an important settlement during the Byzantine Period as well. This settlement was especially included in the theme of Neokastra in order to stop Turkish raids into Western Anatolia, and also to reinforce regional defense and protect the settlements. There are various opinions on the Byzantine Period settlement in Darkale. Germe, Thrakoula and Khliara are possibilities on which the researchers dwell. The localization of the cities has been examined in detail. Fortification remains constitute most of the architectural data from the Byzantine period in Darkale. Wall remains on a slope to Temenni Hill, remains in Asar Hill and Orta Bağlar, architectural plastic works used as spolia in mosques Kırkoluk and Minareli, and the pieces collected in an open area around Kırkoluk Mosque are the data that points out to the Byzantine period settlement. There are two adjacent sections of the remains of a fortress on Asar Hill. The small fortress on rocky hill extends in an east-west direction. The structure in the east is 5.20mx4.90m in size. It was made of rubble stone and lime mortar with some broken bricks used between the stones. The other structure is about 7m to the west of the former, and is 10mx8m in size. It displays better craftsmanship than the eastern structure. It was made of rubble stone and lime mortar. The southern wall consists of broken and halved bricks with alternating rows of stone and brick. There are partial remains between the two structures. The hill overlooks the entire Bakırçay Plain and the remains must have been parts of a watchtower. Surrounded by steep slopes and cliffs, Asar Hill is difficult to reach. A road paved with stones follows the softer slopes and extends to a relatively flat area near the hill. The road features steps in patches and is approximately 1km long. It expands and contracts according to the topography and has smoother and larger flagstones along the sides. On Temenni Hill, which overlooks the Darkale settlement and Soma Plain, there is a 70m long limes wall. This wall can be defined as a line that reinforces the settlement defense. The wall's height reaches 2-2.50m in some parts while only the surface trace is visible in others. The wall was not coated. The inner filling consists of rubble stone and lime mortar. The wall is 130cm thick. The remains on the hills Temenni and Asar prove the presence of a defense line. Several settlements in the Neokastra theme, which was founded by Manuel I Komnenos for the purpose of defense from the Turks, were reinforced. Unelaborate craftsmanship of the fortification remains on the hills, made of rubble stone and lime mortar, are similar to the fortresses of the Komnenos period. There is no apparent order in the construction of these fortifications located within the new chain of Turkish Studies International Periodical for the Languages, Literature and History of Turkish or Turkic Volume 11/1 Winter 2016 Darkale in the Byzantine Period: Settlement and Some Architectural Notes 61 fortresses as the main goal was to build defense structures to protect the area as soon as possible. This defensive order created by the Byzantine began in the 11th century AD and survived through the 13th century AD. Large numbers and high quality of the architectural sculptures in the settlement are striking. A large body of spolia was used in the construction of a fountain under the higher Kırkoluk Mosque, presumably built between the 18th century and early 19th century, Minareli Mosque and the new fountain at the entrance of Darkale Village. Several stone works collected around the settlement are exhibited in a park built around Kırkoluk Mosque. Some of these pieces are dated to the Early Byzantine Period according to their decoration style and composition. Most of these works are dated to the Middle Byzantine Period. The intensity of liturgical architectural sculpture indicates that there is a church. In conclusion, the settlement in the area of present day Darkale was a garrison intended to protect Pergamon against threats from the east during the Roman period. Later, especially in the 11th-13th centuries AD, the road connecting Western Anatolian ports to the interiors lost importance and southern-northern connection gained prominence, and the Darkale settlement became one of the major points along the road. Fortifications in Asar Hill and Temenni Hill show similarities to the other fortifications in Neokastra in terms of their construction technique. Darkale overlooked the Haikos Plain as a part of the Neokastra system, was located along the road, and houses architectural remains, which increase the possibility of Darkale being Khliara. Keywords: Byzantine Architecture, Neokastra, Western Anatolia, Darkale, Khliara BİZANS DÖNEMİNDE DARKALE: YERLEŞME VE BAZI MİMARİ BULGULAR ÖZET Manisa ilinin Soma ilçesine bağlı bir köy durumunda olan Darkale’nin tam olarak ne zaman yerleşim gördüğü belli olmamakla birlikte, Bizans dönemindeki varlığı ve adı konusunda farklı görüşler bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma, tarihsel süreç içinde Darkale’nin bulunduğu toprakların durumuna değinmenin yanı sıra buradaki yerleşmeyle ilgili tartışmalar üzerinde durarak Darkale’deki Bizans dönemi kalıntılarını tanıtmaktadır. Antik dönemde Mysia bölgesinin sınırları içinde kalan Darkale’nin bulunduğu topraklar, Bergama Krallığı’nın sonrasında da Roma İmparatorluğu’nun önemli şehirlerinden olan Pergamon’un territoriumunda yer almıştır. Roma İmparatorluğu’nun ikiye ayrılmasıyla birlikte Doğu Roma İmparatorluğu’nun bir parçası olmuştur. Kaikos (Bakırçay) nehrinin suladığı verimli ovalar bölgeye zenginlik katarken, yerleşimin bulunduğu Tırhala Dağı da savunmayı Turkish Studies International Periodical for the Languages, Literature and History of Turkish or Turkic Volume 11/1 Winter 2016 62 Ü. Melda ERMİŞ güçlendirmiştir. Konumunun kazandırdığı avantajlar nedeniyle Darkale Bizans döneminde önemli bir yerleşme olmalıdır. Bu yerleşme, özellikle I.Manuel Komnenos döneminde Türklerin Batı Anadolu’ya yaptıkları akınları engellemek, bölgenin savunmasını arttırmak ve buradaki yerleşmeleri korumak için oluşturulan Neokastra themasının içinde yer almıştır. Darkale’deki Bizans dönemi yerleşmesiyle ilgili farklı görüşler bulunmaktadır. Germe, Thrakoula, Khliara araştırmacılar tarafından üzerinde durulan olasılıklardır. Çalışmada her bir şehrin lokalizasyonu üzerinde ayrıntılı durulmuştur. Tüm olasılıklar değerlendirildiğinde ve Clive Foss’un yerleşimin Bizans dönemindeki ‘ta khliara’ (τα χλιαρα) olan adının Türk döneminde Tahrala şeklinde dönüşmüş olabileceği fikri göz önüne alındığında Khliara kentinin Darkale’deki yerleşme için daha olası olduğu belirtilmiştir. Yerleşmedeki Bizans dönemine ait mimari verilerin çoğunluğunu tahkimat kalıntıları oluşturmaktadır. Temenni Tepesi’ne çıkan yamaçtaki duvar kalıntıları, Asar Tepe’deki ve Orta Bağlar mevkilerindeki kalıntılar, Kırkoluk Camisi ve Minareli Cami’de

    Trakya Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi 31 Haziran 2009 Cilt 11 Sayı 1 (31-50) İŞGAL DÖNEMİNDE İZMİR METROPOLİTİ HRİSOSTOMOS (1919–1922) Yrd. Doç. Dr. Bülent ATALAY* ÖZET Yunanistan, Mondros Mütarekesi’ne rağmen İzmir’i işgal etti. İşgalin gerçekleşmesinde İzmir Metropoliti Hrisostomos’un faaliyetleri çok etkili oldu. Hrisostomos, Türklerin, Hıristiyanları katlettiklerine dair iddialar ileri sürdü. Bunu ispat etmek için de "Türklerin Hıristiyanlara Tecavüzleri" adında bir kitap hazırlayarak işgalci devletlerin temsilciliklerine dağıttı. Metropolit Hirsostomos faaliyetlerini İzmir metropolithanesi merkezli yürütmekteydi. İşgalinin ilk gününde Yunan askerlerini karşılayan Hrisostomos, aynı zamanda onları kutsayarak, Türkleri öldürmenin görev olduğunu belirti. Ermenilerin de desteğini alan Metropolit Hrisostomos, İzmir’deki Türklere işgal süresince zor anlar yaşattı. Asıl amaç İzmir’in Yunanistan’a bağlanmasını sağlamaktı. İzmir Valisi İzzet’in de yardımı ile Hrisostomos Türkleri baskı altında tutmaya çalıştı. Fakat Yunan kuvvetlerinin, Türk ordusu karşısında almaya başladığı mağlubiyet, Hrisostomos’un ümitlerini kırmaya başladı. Türk kuvvetleri 9 Eylül 1922’de İzmir’e girdiler. Nihayet 10 Eylül 1922 tarihiyle birlikte Hrisostomos için yolun sonu da gelmişti. İzmir’de yaşayan Türkler tarafından linç edildi. Anahtar Kelime: Metropolit, Hrisostomos, İzmir, Millî Mücadele IZMIR ARCHBISHOP HRISOSTOMOS DURING THE INVASION (1919-1922) ABSTRACT Greece occupied lamis despite the Mondros Agreement. The activities of Izmir Archbishop Hrisostomos became effective on the invasion. Hrisostomos clamied that Turks murdered Christians. In order to prove this claim, he wrote o book named “Turks’ Attacks against Christions” and distributed it to the representations of the allied powers. Hrisostomos who welcomed the Grek troops and blessed them commanded the troops to kill Turks. Hrisostomos who was supported by the Armanions caused to hard times for Turks during the invasion.

    TAD, C.39/S.68, 2020, s.175-205 AYDINOĞLU ĠBRAHĠM BEY VE BODAMYA MESELESĠ AYDINOGLU IBRAHIM BEY AND BODAMIA ISSUE Funda ADITATAR Makale Bilgisi Article Info Başvuru: 10.06.2020 Received: June 10, 2020 Kabul: 10.09.2020 Accepted: September 10, 2020 Özet Aydınoğlu Beyliği, on dördüncü yüzyıl başlarında Batı Anadolu’da kurulmuş Türk beyliklerinden biridir. Kurucusu Aydınoğlu Mehmet Bey, Birgi, Tire, Efes/Ayasuluk, Yukarı İzmir Kalesini topraklarına kattı. Merkezi Birgi olan beylik hakkında bilgi edinilen başlıca kaynak, on beşinci yüzyılda yazılmış olan Düstürnâme-i Enverî adlı eserdir. Buna göre Mehmet Bey hâkimiyeti altındaki yerleri, beş oğlu arasında paylaştırarak her birini idareci olarak kendi bölgesine tayin etmiştir. Ayasuluğ ve Sultanhisarı'nı büyük oğlu Hızır Bey'e, İzmir'i Umur Bey'e, Bodamya'yı üçüncü oğlu İbrahim Bahadır Bey'e, Tire'yi dördüncü oğlu Süleyman Bey'e vermiştir. En küçük oğlu İsa Bey'i de yanında alıkoymuştur. İbrahim Bahadır Bey’e verilen Bodamya’nın, günümüzde İzmir Ödemiş’te Bademli olduğu genel kabul görmüştür. Ancak bu iddia, Mehmet Bey’in ikametgahı Birgi ile Süleyman’ın bölgesi Tire’ye yakınlığından dolayı sorunludur. Urla’nın sosyal ve iktisadi tarihine ilişkin yapılan çalışmada bölgenin, Aydınoğlu Beyliği hakimiyetine girişiyle uzun soluklu bir dönüşüm geçirdiği anlaşılmıştır. Bu dönüşümü anlama gayreti, Bodamya’nın yeri ile ilgili yeni bir tespitin de mümkün olabileceğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu tespite; dönemin iktisadi ve siyasi olaylarıyla İbrahim Bey’in fetih ve idari faaliyetlerinin yeniden değerlendirilmesiyle ulaşılmıştır. Dolayısıyla bu makale, Urla Yarımadası’nın tarihi gelişimi yanında Aydınoğlu Beyliği’nin idari yapısına, tarihi bir figür olarak İbrahim Bey’in tanınmasına katkı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Aydınoğlu Beyliği, İbrahim Bey, Bodamya, Urla, Tarihi Coğrafya Abstract Aydinoglu emirate is founded in Western Anatolia in the beginning of the fourteenth century.

Centuries B.C. was under the control of Persians who were in the position of the super force of the period. At the same dates, city states in Greece, Athens and Sparta leading, were not able to get on with one another traditionally and tried to provide security by founding federations. In this political scene, Philip II in Macedonia brought the tribes of the region together in the second half of 4. Century B.C. and became an important political and military force. The most important problem for the Greek cities and Macedonian Kingdom following a policy close to Greek culture was Persians who controlled the Greek cities at theAnatolian coasts and limited trade between the Greek colonies in theAegean and Black Seas. Philip II had succeeded in bringing the Greek city states together at Corinth in 338 B.C. to overcome this problem and caused a decision from Corinth Union to enter a war of revenge in his leadership against the Persians. Upon murdering of Philip II a short time after this decision,Alexander III who shall go down into history as “Alexander The Great” undertook this duty in 336 B.C.

    COMMUNAL RELATIONS IN ĐZM ĐR/SMYRNA, 1826-1864: AS SEEN THROUGH THE PRISM OF GREEK-TURKISH RELATIONS by N. Feryal Tansu ğ A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto Copyright by N. Feryal Tansu ğ 2008 ABSTRACT COMMUNAL RELATIONS IN ĐZM ĐR/SMYRNA, 1826-1864: AS SEEN THROUGH THE PRISM OF GREEK-TURKISH RELATIONS by Feryal Tansu ğ Doctor of Philosophy Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto 2008 This dissertation examines the level of social and cultural interaction between the Greek and Turkish communities of Đzmir and the impact of the centralizing Ottoman reforms on the society of Đzmir during the age of the Ottoman modernization. It focuses on the years between 1826 and 1864 that marked a turning point in the administrative history of the Ottoman Empire. Analyzing this subject requires understanding the social-cultural and economic dynamics of Đzmir that played a crucial role in the formation of the social fabric of the city. Ottoman-Turkish archival material and to some extent Greek newspapers of the time are used as primary sources. The sources discussed in this dissertation demonstrate that the central authority attempted to re- integrate Đzmir into its administrative and political structure in accordance with the centralizing or repressive Tanzimat reforms. However, Tanzimat reforms did not disturb the social cohesion of Đzmir, which the city produced over the centuries with its local character and some peculiar dynamics. The evidence also indicates that the Empire did not aim to mold social relations in Đzmir, instead benefited from city’s already existing social-cultural and economic situation, which was well suited to its modernization program.

    perspektywy kultury / Orient. Wczoraj i dziś perspectives on culture No. 31 (4/2020) Sabire Arık http://orcid.org/0000-0003-3662-9866 Ankara University, Ankara [email protected] DOI: 10.35765/pk.2020.3104.06 The First Turkish Navy Admiral: Chaka Bey ABSTRACT Turks paid special attention to the organization of ground troops due to their geographical location in Central Asia which is why they built the strongest land army in the world. Their first naval endeavor emerged after the conquest of Anatolia. This was because of Anatolia’s geographical position, being an Asian peninsula extending towards the west and situated between the con- tinents of Europe and Asia, and also a conjunction of land and sea routes between the continents. With the start of the Turkish conquest of Anatolia after the victorious Battle of Malazgirt in 1071, the strategy of Turkish domi- nation changed. The new rulers of the area surrounded by sea from three sides realized that the way to protect their territory was the domination of the seas. During this period, mass migration took place from Turkey to the region of western Anatolia, and on the other hand, Chaka Bey (Çaka Bey) managed to dominate Smyrna (Izmir) after the change on the throne of the Byzantine Empire in 1081. He established a Turkish Seaside Principality (Türk Sahil Beyliği or İzmir Türk Beyliği). Although his life was short, the first coastal Turkish state is significant from the point of view of Turkish history, meaning that the history of the Turkish navy starts in 1081, which is the date of the first fleet built by Chaka Bey.

  • The Gallipoli Caste ‹N the Byzantine Period
    Hacettepe Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Dergisi 2006 / Cilt : 23 / Say›: 2 / ss. 175-198 The Gallipoli Caste ‹n the Byzantine Period Ayfle ÇAYLAK TÜRKER* Abstract According to historical data, the strait region had a strategic significance during the early Byzantine Period. Gallipoli, located at the upper part of the strait became strategically more significant particularly after the 11th century. According to historical records, Gallipoli continued to be a critical port for a long time owing to the fact that it shortened the passage from the European side to Anatolia on land. In addition the focal point of the region always appears to have been the Gallipoli Castle. We know of the existence of the Castle thanks to descriptive records, although it is not supported by archaeological material. In this study, to contribute towards resolving this issue, the walls and traces of walls in Gallipoli were examined. At the end of this study, performed in three stages in line with the objectives we had determined, it may be understood that Gallipoli Castle has a rectangular possible square plan. It is seen that this plan possesses the traces of building patterns representing the periods from early Byzantine to late Byzantine and Ottoman Periods. The data collected during this study may well contribute towards further studies to be performed in Gallipoli and Gallipoli Castle. Another question that may be raised following this study is whether the rectangular possible square castle had a second defence line. The answer to this question could be clarified through comprehensive work supported with an archeo-geophysics excavation project. Key words: Gallipoli, Castle, Dardanelles, Byzantine Özet Yaz›l› veriler, erken Bizans döneminde orta bo¤az bölümünün önemine iflaret eder.
