The Role of University Museums in the Formation of New Cultural Layers
40 — VOLUME 9 2017 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL The role of University museums in the formatıon of new cultural layers: the case of Golden Horn, Istanbul Nurten Ozdemir & Hikmet Sivri Gokmen Abstract Museums play an important role in the conservation of cultural land- scapes, their integration with the city and presentation to publicity. In this respect, the study focuses on university museums in the vicinity of Golden Horn, which is a historic-industrial region. This region has been transforming into a cultural and educational area through activities related with the foundation of universities and museums. Silahtarağa Power Plant and Cibali Tobacco Factories were renovated to be used as Bilgi University and Kadir Has University, they are two different examples that show us the importance of the university museums for creating a new cultural layer and social environment in Golden Horn. Contrary to the other cultural institutions, university museums play the vital role of integrating local community and new cultural layers of the region by providing educational landscapes. 41 — VOLUME 9 2017 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL ‘Cultural landscape’ is one of the newest terms of the 20th century that has various definitions because of interdisciplinary studies. UNESCO defines cultural landscape as “combined works of nature and of man”. Cultural landscapes “are illustrative of the evaluation of human society and settlement over time, under the influence of physical constrains and opportunities presented by their natural environment and of successive social, economic and cultural forces, both external and internal” (Cultural Landscapes). According to ANTROP (2005), cultural landscape is a result of the reorganization process of spatial structure and usage of area in order to satisfy the changing social demands of community. -

Based on the information EXISTENCE OF HUMANKIND – SUN, SKY, TORCH, about the big fire of 931, it can be gathered that in OIL LAMP AND CANDLE Byzantium of the Middle Ages candlemakers had workshops around the Forum of Constantin. It can be assumed that If we are to classify lighting in categories of natural and palaces had their own chandlers since Hagia Sophia had its artificial light, the sky and sunlight constitute natural own chandler. This tradition has been continued and further light. First artificial sources of light emerge with the enriched during the Ottoman times. For Christians, the discovery of fire. “Is it Prometheus who brings the fire, or candle symbolizes Jesus the light of God, therefore they even is it obtained through the trees set ablaze by lightning?” establish foundations to illuminate the churches.

It was bought in the 1820s by Salvatore Dal Negro, professor of experimental physics, to illustrate his lectures on early astronomy. It is a very rare model, which demonstrates the trepidation and preces- sion of the equinoxes through the motion of two inner spheres – the eighth and ninth spheres of the geocentric universe – within the outer, or tenth sphere. The trepidation theory was proposed in the Middle Ages and rejected at the end of the sixteenth century due to Tycho Brahe’s works. The horizon ring and the tripod stand of the instrument are nineteenth-century additions. -
