  • Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments
    Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments Peter Ian Kuniholm 4 Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments Peter Ian Kuniholm INTRODUCTION Dendrochronology or tree-ring dating has been carried out by the author in former Ottoman lands since 1973. The method is, at its sim- plest, to compare the alternately small and large annual growth-rings from trees from a given climate region-in this case as far west as Bosnia and as far east as Erzurum-and to match them so that a unique year-by-year growth profile may be developed. By means of this a precise date determination, accurate even to the year in which the wood was cut, is possible. See Kuniholm (1995) for a fuller discussion of the method; and then see Kuniholm and Striker (1983; 1987) and Kuniholm (1996) for earlier date-lists of Ottoman, post-Byzantine, and Byzantine buildings, including brief notices of dates for a dozen more dated Ottoman buildings, principally in Greece, and additional notices of sampled but not yet dated buildings which are not repeated here. What follows is a compilation, in reverse chronological order, of over fifty dated buildings or sites (more if one counts their constituent parts) from the nineteenth century back to the twelfth (Figure 4.1). Some are major monuments (imperial mosques, sarays, sifayes) clearly deserving of more comprehensive treatment than can be pro- vided here; others (tiirbes, mescits, obscure medreses, and private houses) are little-known, perhaps even unheard of except to special- ists; but all help to form part of the tree-ring sequence which begins with the rings of trees still standing in Turkish forests and extends in an unbroken chain to A.D.360 for oak, A.D.743 for pine, and A.D.1037 for juniper.

    The Ottomans | Turkish-Islamic Art in Pre-Ottoman Anatolia ‘Following the Battle of Manzikert, Anatolia saw a new political, religious and social formation.’ Following the Battle of Manzikert in 463 / 1071, Anatolia saw the rise of a new political, religious and social formation next to the centuries-old Byzantine Empire. This was the Turks, who had started their journey from the Steppes of Asia, founded the Great Seljuq Empire in Iran, and then settled in Anatolia.

  • Courtyards and Ottoman Mosques in the 15Th and 16Th Centuries: Symbolism, Mimesis and Demise
    ITU A|Z • Vol 12 No 2 • July 2015 • 35-48 Courtyards and Ottoman mosques in the 15th and 16th centuries: Symbolism, mimesis and demise Satoshi KAWAMOTO [email protected] • JSPS research fellow at Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Tokyo, Japan Received: January 2015 Final Acceptance: April 2015 Abstract Te frst aim of this paper is to describe the emergence of courtyards in Otto- man sultanic mosques in the ffeenth century and discuss the background of this pivotal transition. Te reception of courtyards in Ottoman mosques dates back to A.H. 841(1437), Üç Şerefeli Cami in Edirne. Te fact that Eyüp Sultan Camii in Istanbul was the second sultanic mosque with a courtyard indicates the royal sym- bolism of courtyard at a mosque, since the one in Eyüp functioned as the stage of sword girding (kılıç kuşanma) ceremonial of newly enthroned sultans. Secondly, in order to afrm that only sultans could construct mosques with courtyards, a few exceptional non-sultanic mosques with courtyards are exam- ined. Tese pseudo-courtyards, were merely extensions which was a clever solu- tion for non-sultanic benefactors. Finally, it is analysed how Sinan prepared a formula for courtyards in mosques for his non-sultanic patrons in the sixteenth century. He adopted an existing “mosque and madrasa” style for these patrons, but carefully alluded to the dif- ference between the mosque section and the madrasa. However, it was also Si- nan who abandoned this meticulous design and started building mosques with courtyards for non-sultanic patrons in a sultanic manner in 1580s. Te demise of courtyards as a symbol of the omnipotent sultan coincided with the political upheaval of the dynasty.

The building fulfilled the expectation dıat a legitimate ruler would supp ort re­ ligion, publicly declare dıe nature and orthodoxy of his faith, and promote his daim to authority. The new mosque was the central building of a broad pro­ gramme that included new public facilities and spaces that both rhetorically and practically demonstrated the role ot tivil institutions in producing wealdı and benefits for all. As the nucleus of a new state, it generated legitimacy, prestige, and stability.
