  • Kurdish Overrepresentation Among Danish Islamic State Warriors
    News Analysis April 2018 Kurdish overrepresentation among Danish Islamic State warriors Mehmet Ümit Necef News On 10 February 2018 Vedat Sariboga, a 27-year-old Turkish citizen of Kurdish origin, was sentenced to five years in jail by a Danish court for having gone to Syria to join Islamic State (IS).1 In addition, the prosecution demanded his expulsion to Turkey and a permanent ban on entry to Denmark. Sariboga’s family descends originally from the Kurdish village of Tavsancali in Konya province in central Turkey. He has lived since childhood in Vestegnen (the Western part of Greater Copenhagen), where many immigrants from Konya and their descendants live. Summary The article discusses the possible reasons why Kurds are apparently overrepresented among Danish Islamic State warriors. Research on Turkish citizens of Kurdish origin joining IS is also presented, since it also suggests a corresponding overrepresentation. Key Words Islamic State, Denmark, Turkey, overrepresentation, Kurds About the Author M. Ümit Necef is an associate professor. He works on a 4-year project financed by the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare (FORTE) on the motivations of young Swedish and Danish Muslims to join Islamic State (IS) and other jihadist groups. M. Ümit Necef: Kurdish overrepresentation among Danish Islamic State warriors 2 Analysis: Vedat Sariboga is the latest addition to a long list of Kurds stemming from Turkey, Iraq or Iran, who have gone to Syria to fight for the Islamic State.

  • Earliest Known Maps #100 TITLE
    Earliest Known Maps #100 TITLE: The Earliest Known Map DATE: 6,200 B.C. AUTHOR: unknown DESCRIPTION: The human activity of graphically translating one’s perception of his world is now generally recognized as a universally acquired skill and one that pre-dates virtually all other forms of written communication. Set in this pre-literate context and subjected to the ravages of time, the identification of any artifact as “the oldest map”, in any definitive sense, becomes an elusive task. Nevertheless, searching for the earliest forms of cartography is a continuing effort of considerable interest and fascination. These discoveries provide not only chronological benchmarks and information about geographical features and perceptions thereof, but they also verify the ubiquitous nature of mapping, help to elucidate cultural differences and influences, provide valuable data for tracing conceptual evolution in graphic presentations, and enable examination of relationships to more “contemporary primitive” mapping. As such, there are a number of well- known early examples that appear in most standard accounts of the history of cartography. The most familiar artifacts put forth as “the oldest extant cartographic efforts” are the Babylonian maps engraved on clay tablets. These maps vary in scale, ranging from small-scale world conceptions to regional, local and large-scale depictions, down to building and grounds plans. In detailed accounts of these cartographic artifacts there are conflicting estimates concerning their antiquity, content and significance. Dates quoted by “authorities” may vary by as much as 1,500 years and the interpretation of specific symbols, colors, geographic locations and names on these artifacts often differ in interpretation from scholar to scholar.

  • A New Classification of the Turkish Terranes and Sutures and Its Implication for the Paleotectonic History of the Region

Different terranes can be defined and characterized by their dominant geological background. The Pontides domain represents a segment of the former active margin of Eurasia, where back-arc basins opened in the Triassic and separated the Sakarya terrane from neighbouring regions. Sakarya was re-accreted to Laurasia through the Balkanic mid-Cretaceous orogenic event that also affected the Rhodope and Strandja zones. The whole region from the Balkans to the Caucasus was then affected by a reversal of subduction and creation of a Late Cretaceous arc before collision with the Anatolian domain in the Eocene. If the Anatolian terrane underwent an evolution similar to Sakarya during the Late Paleozoic and Early Triassic times, both terranes had a diverging history during and after the Eo-Cimmerian collision.
