WOMEN PATRONS IN MEDIEVAL ANATOLIA AND A DISCUSSION OF MĀHBARĪ KHĀTŪN’S MOSQUE COMPLEX IN KAYSERI PATRICIA BLESSING* At the center of Kayseri, facing the well-preserved citadel stands a large architectural complex, consisting of a mosque, madrasa, mauso- leum, and the ruins of a double bathhouse [See figure 1]. The building, known locally as the Hunad Hatun or Huand Hatun Complex, was built in the second quarter of the thirteenth century. Inscriptions on both por- tals of the mosque date to 1237-38, while the other parts of the complex remain undated. At the time of construction, the patron of the complex, Māhbarī Khātūn, was the mother of the ruling Sultan Ghiyāth al-Dīn Kaykhusraw II (R 1237-46) and of the widows of the Sultan ‘Alā’ al-Dīn Kayqubād (R 1219-37).1 With her intervention in Kayseri and the con- struction of two caravanserais near Tokat and Yozgat, Māhbarī Khātūn is one of the most prolific female patrons in medieval Anatolia, and the one who is best documented inmonumental inscriptions, although not in much detail in other written sources of the period, such as chronicles and hagiographies. * Dr., Stanford Humanities Center, Stanford University, 424 Santa Teresa Street, Stan- ford, CA 94305, USA; [email protected]. 1 In modern Turkish, the name is more commonly spelled as Mahperi Hatun. Huand Hatun appears as a Turkish adaptation of the titles Khwand Khātūn. Another wife of the Sultan ‘Alā’ al-Dīn Kayqubād was Iṣmat al-Dunyā wa’l-Dīn al-Malika al-‘Ādila, a daughter of the Ayyubid ruler of Syria, al-Malik al-Ashraf Abū Bakr b. -
The Arsenite Schism and the Babai Rebellion: Two Case Studies
THE ARSENITE SCHISM AND THE BABAI REBELLION: TWO CASE STUDIES IN CENTER-PERIPHERY RELATIONS by Hüsamettin ŞİMŞİR Submitted to the Institute of Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Sabancı University June 2018 © Hüsamettin Şimşir 2018 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT THE ARSENITE SCHISM AND THE BABAI REBELLION: TWO CASE STUDIES IN CENTER-PERIPHERY RELATIONS Hüsamettin Şimşir M.A Thesis, June 2018 Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Fac. Member Ferenc Péter Csirkés This thesis aims to present an analysis of the interaction between Christians and Muslims in the west of Asia Minor at the end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th centuries after two religious-social movements in the Byzantine and the Rum Seljuk Empires, the Arsenite Schism and the Babai Rebellion. After the unsuccessful rebellion of the Babais, antinomian dervishes who had migrated to the west of Asia Minor because of a heavy oppression as well as inquisition by the state and had a different religious belief apart from the mainstream religious understanding of the center initiated missionary activities in the regions along the Byzantine border. Accordingly, these dervishes had joined the military activities of the Turcoman chieftains against the Byzantines and interacted with the local Christian population and religious figures. As a result of this religious interaction, messianic and ascetic beliefs were increasingly present among the Greek-speaking population as well as spiritual leaders of western Anatolia. Since such interfaith and cross- cultural interaction had a considerable impact on the course of all these events, this thesis focuses on them to create a better understanding of the appearance of the Hesychasm in the Byzantine spiritual environment in the later period. -

The Seljuks of Anatolia: An Epigraphic Study Abstract This is a study of the monumental epigraphy of the Anatolian Seljuk Sultanate, also known as the Sultanate of Rum, which emerged in Anatolia following the Great Seljuk victory in Manzikert against the Byzantine Empire in the year 1071.It was heavily weakened in the Battle of Köse Dağ in 1243 against the Mongols but lasted until the end of the thirteenth century. The history of this sultanate which survived many wars, the Crusades and the Mongol invasion is analyzed through their epigraphy with regard to the influence of political and cultural shifts. The identity of the sultanate and its sultans is examined with the use of their titles in their monumental inscriptions with an emphasis on the use of the language and vocabulary, and with the purpose of assessing their strength during different periods of their realm. -
On the Outskirts of the Ilkhanate: the Mongols' Relationship with the Province of Kastamonu in the Second Half of the 13Th
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Goldsmiths Research Online On the outskirts of the Ilkhanate: the Mongols’ relationship with the province of Kastamonu in the second half of the 13th century1 Dr. Bruno De Nicola Introduction The impact of the Mongol invasions of the Middle East has been the subject of extensive research, especially in the last few decades.2 Scholars have evaluated the damage and the benefits brought by the Mongols to the Islamic world in different fields such as the military, religion, politics, economy and culture.3 Despite this, in the case of Anatolia, the Mongol period is still under-studied when compared with, for example, the history of the Mongols in Iran or China. This is due to a variety of reasons: on the one hand, Anatolia was a frontier land away from the center of Ilkhanid power, which was based in Tabriz, and consequently it occupies a marginal place in the principal Ilkhanid sources; on the other hand, Turkish historiography has traditionally overlooked the period, seeing it as transitional between the golden age of the Seljuqs of Rūm in the initial decades of 13th century and the rise of the Ottomans in the 14th century (Melville, 2009).4 If Anatolia was a distant land in the eyes of the Ilkhanid rulers, the western areas of the peninsula were even more so, areas where different local dynasties emerged in the second half of the 13th century in a complex political scenario that combined Mongol overlordship, proximity to a decadent but prestigious Byzantium, and the presence of Turkmen tribes. -

Türkiye Selçuklularinda Köy Teşkilâti Village Organization in the Sultanate of Rum
USAD, Bahar 2017; (6):53-64 E-ISSN: 2548-0154 TÜRKİYE SELÇUKLULARINDA KÖY TEŞKİLÂTI VILLAGE ORGANIZATION IN THE SULTANATE OF RUM Mikâil BAYRAM Öz Malazgirt zaferini takip eden yıllarda Anadolu’ya Türkmen göçleri ardı arkası kesilmeksizin asırlarca devam etmiştir. Bunun bir sonucu olarak da, Anadolu’da kırsal bölgelerde yeni köyler, kasabalar kuruluyordu. Bu köy ve kasabalar, çoğunlukla Ahiler tarafından veya tarikat pirleri, din büyükleri adına inşa edilen hanikah, tekke, medrese, imaret ve vakıf gibi hizmet veya hayır kurum ve kuruluşları türündeki yapıların etrafında oluşuyordu. Bu minvalde kurulan köy ve beldelerin sayısı hızla binlerle ifade edilecek kadar çoğalmıştır. Selçuklu devlet adamları yeni kurulan bu köyleri belli bir şekilde organize ediyor ve belli bir anlayış ile köylerin yönetilmesini sağlamaya çalışıyorlardı. Bu hususta Kubreviyye Tarikatı şeyhlerinden olan Necmü’d-din-i Daye l223(620) de kaleme aldığı “Mirsâdü’l-ibâd„ adlı eserinde “Köy sahipleri, köy ağaları ve çiftçi ve işçilerin uymaları gereken kurallar„ başlığı altında orijinal bilgiler vermiş ve eserini Türkiye Selçuklu sultanı I.Alâü’d-din Keykubad’a sunmuş ve bu sultanın iltifatına mazhar olmuştur. Bu bakımdan onun eserinde köylerin yapılanması ve köy yönetimi ile ilgili kuralların titizlikle uygulandığı muhakkaktır. Bu sebeble Necmü’d-din-i Daye’nin köylerin yönetimi ve ziraat ile uğraşanların uymaları gereken ahlâkî kurallar ve aralarındaki hiyerarşik ilişkiler hakkındaki açıklamaları, Selçukluları Devleti yöneticileri için örnek teşkil etmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler Köy Teşkilâtı, Selçuklu, Türkler, Malazgirt, Necmü’d-din-i Daye, Mirsâdü’l- ibâd„ Ahiler. Abstract After the following years of the Battle of Manzikert, Turkmen migrations to Anatolia went on constantly for ages. As a result of that situation, new villages and towns were established in the countryside of Anatolia. -

This appears to be true for Seljuk Anatolia: the mothers, daughters and wives of the Seljuk sultans studded the urban and rural landscape with an array of buildings, leaving their names and legacies for posterity. Even though the Seljuks are known for their patrilineal genealogy that traces them back to Central Asia and Iran, their mat- rilineal genealogy – often characterised by local political alliances in the form of marriages – rooted the dynasty in Anatolia. -
