FRENCH SUMMARY (Villages forestiers de Mersin) Résumé de l’étude : L’étude de cas a été conduite, sous les auspices de la FAO et le plan bleu, dans 7 villages forestiers de la province de Mersin, ville de Tarse en Turquie. L’objectif de l’étude est de déterminer la contribution de la forêt méditerranéenne au développement durable, en particulier, la vie des populations des villages forestiers. L’étude a concerné les ressources forestières et leurs impacts sur les villages forestiers situés dans la région méditerranéenne. À cette fin, l'opinion des populations locales, du personnel forestier et des autres partenaires concernés par la gestion des ressource forestières a été recueillie en en utilisant une méthode participative. Ainsi, des exemples de scénarios de pratiques de gestion forestière durable ont été formulées pour la région.

The aS trap Of Western Anatolia And The Greeks Abstract This dissertation explores the extent to which Persian policies in the western satrapies originated from the provincial capitals in the Anatolian periphery rather than from the royal centers in the Persian heartland in the fifth ec ntury BC. I begin by establishing that the Persian administrative apparatus was a product of a grand reform initiated by Darius I, which was aimed at producing a more uniform and centralized administrative infrastructure. In the following chapter I show that the provincial administration was embedded with chancellors, scribes, secretaries and military personnel of royal status and that the satrapies were periodically inspected by the Persian King or his loyal agents, which allowed to central authorities to monitory the provinces. In chapter three I delineate the extent of satrapal authority, responsibility and resources, and conclude that the satraps were supplied with considerable resources which enabled to fulfill the duties of their office. After the power dynamic between the Great Persian King and his provincial governors and the nature of the office of satrap has been analyzed, I begin a diachronic scrutiny of Greco-Persian interactions in the fifth century BC.

This research was conducted within the frame- work of a multi-disciplinary bi-lateral project sup- ported by the Turkish Scientific and Technological Research Council (TUBITAK) and the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature-Japan (RIHN). A total of 8 subgroups conducted their research independently but in coordination of the ”Impact of Climate Change on Agricultural Production in Arid Areas” ICCAP. For several reasons, the Sey- han River Basin was selected as the pilot research area for the project. The water resources of the basin were studied by the International Research Center For Karst Water Resources (UKAM) of the Hacettepe University (Ankara) in cooperation with the DSI, University of Cukurova in Adana and Mustafa Kemal University in Antakya. The Seyhan River Basin, located at a semi-arid part of Turkey-having significant water and land resources potential- was selected as a pilot study area, to inspect the vulnerable components of wa- ter resources (surface water and groundwater) sys- tems, and define and quantify their vulnerabil- ity to climate change. The Seyhan River Basin (SRB), one of the major water resources basins in Turkey is located in the Eastern Mediterranean Figure 1.1 Geographical location and division of geographical region of Turkey (Figure 1.1).

  • Mersin/Gülnar Akyapı Mağarası'nda Bulunan Prehistorik Mağara Resimleri
    OLBA XXV, 2017 MERSİN/GÜLNAR AKYAPI MAĞARASI’NDA BULUNAN PREHİSTORİK MAĞARA RESİMLERİ K. Serdar GİRGİNER – Murat DURUKAN * ABSTRACT Prehistoric Paintings in the Akyapı Cave in Mersin / Gülnar The cave paintings in the Akyapı (AlaKapı) cave, near the town of Gülnar (Mersin) have been discovered in 2012 and they are regarded as unique for the Middle Taurus region. In these paintings which are excursively scattered on the cave walls, the same figure was presented several times. The human figures have their arms raised upwards with elbows knicked in an angle of 90º and with knees also knicked in the same angle as the arms. The figures have big phalloi (?). The fact that the standard figure in question was depicted several times and that there is no other subject in the cave walls indicate the importance of both the cave and the depicted character. Because of its huge phal- los, it is suggested that the figure in question is a sacred being, and that the cave was probably a sacred place. It is assumed that the cave paintings of Akyapı in the Middle Taurus region where the number of prehistoric researches are so scanty may be dated to Neolithic or Chalcolithic period. Keywords: Prehistoric period, cave paintings, Gülnar, Akyapı, Mersin. ÖZET Mersin ili Gülnar ilçesi sınırları içinde yer alan Akyapı (Ala Kapı) Mağarası’nda 2012 yılında keşfedilen kaya resimleri, Orta Toroslar bölgesinde karşılaşılan ilk örnek- ler olması nedeniyle son derece önem taşımaktadır. Mağaranın duvarlarına gelişi güzel serpiştirilmiş olan bu resimlerde, aynı figürün tekrar tekrar betimlenmiş olduğu görül- mektedir. Kollarını dirseklerinden doksan derecelik açıyla yukarıya doğru kaldırmış ve dizlerini yine doksan derece bükmüş olan bu insan tasvirleri aynı zamanda iri bir fallusa (?) sahiptir.
