Xvi. Yüzyil Anadolusu'nda Oğuz Boylarinin
Ç.Ü. Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi, Cilt 26, Sayı 3, 2017, Sayfa 45-59 XVI. YÜZYIL ANADOLUSU’NDA OĞUZ BOYLARININ YERLEŞTİKLERİ YERLERİN SANCAKLARA DAĞILIMI Mehibe ŞAHBAZ* ÖZ Coğrafi konumu itibarıyla Anadolu tarihin her safahatında pek çok milletin ilgisini çekmiş ve bu yüzden dolayı da sayısız istilalara sahne olmuştur. Değişik din ve kültürlerin etkisi altında kalmıştır. Ancak bu istila ve kültür değişiklerinden hiç biri XI. yüzyılda başlayan ve Anadolu’nun Türkleşmesi ve İslâmlaşması ile sonuçlanan Oğuz (Türkmen) istilası kadar derin izler bırakamamıştır. Türk’ler tarihte birçok kollara ayrılır, Bu kollardan birisi olan Oğuz (Türkmen) adıyla bilinen kitlenin göç etmesi ve Anadolu’ya yerleşmesi, Büyük Selçuklu İmparatorluğu’ndaki siyasî ve demografik gelişmeleriyle ilgilidir. Bu gelişmeleri daha iyi anlayabilmek için Oğuzların Anadolu’ya gelmeden önceki durumlarına ve Anadolu’ya doğru yönelmelerinin sebeplerine kısada olsa temas etmek gerekir. Göktürk ve Uygur devletlerinin önemli bir unsuru olan Oğuzların boy teşkilatları, Selçuklu ve Osmanlı döneminde hüküm sürdükleri yerlere kültürlerini, gelenek ve göreneklerinin yanı sıra ruhi davranışlarını da getirerek, yerleştikleri bölgelerde mensup oldukları boyun oymağının adıyla anılmaktadırlar. Çalışmamızda Oğuzların Anadolu’ya nereden ve ne sebeple göç ettiğini ele almanın ötesinde başta Anadolu olmak üzere Oğuzların değişik coğrafyaları yurt edinmeleri üzerinde durulmuştur. X. asırdan XVI. asır’a kadar Anadolu’da yaşayan Oğuz boylarına mensup oymakların adlarının sancaklara dağılımını ulaşabildiğimiz kaynakların ışığı altında tespit etmeye çalıştık.

In a thorough analysis of these works, readers find that not only were these prominent authors drawing from Sufi ideals to venerate the Prophet, but also outputting significant propositions and arguments that helped maintain the preservation of Islamic values, and rebuild Muslim culture in a South Asian subcontinent that had been in a state of colonization for centuries. -
Pilgrimage | the Haram at Mecca and the Ka'ba
Pilgrimage | The Haram at Mecca and the Ka’ba 'The Ka'ba is the qibla of Islam.' The Ka'ba is the qibla (direction of prayer) of Islam. It is also at the heart of the Hajj and everyone who visits the Haram at Mecca has to circumvent the Ka'ba seven times as part of the prescribed pilgrimage ritual. The Ka'ba has many names in the Islamic tradition, among them: al-Masjid al-Haram (The Sacred Mosque, referring to the mosque within the precinct of the Ka'ba) and al-Bayt al-Atiq (the Ancient House). The Ka'ba is an almost square structure: 9.29 m on its north side, 12.15 m on its west, 10.25 m on its south side, and 11.88 m on its east side. It is 15 m high and has only one access door on the east face that is 2 m above ground level.

The Oghuz Turks of Anatolia
THE OGHUZ TURKS OF ANATOLIA İlhan ŞAHİN The migration and settlement of Oghuz groups, who were also known as Turkmens in Anatolia, were closely related with the political and demographic developments in the Great Seljuk Empire. But in order to understand these developments better, it would be reasonable to dwell first a little on the conditions under which the Oghuz groups lived before migrating to Anatolia, and look to the reasons behind their inclination towards Anatolia. The Oghuz groups, who constituted an important part of the Göktürk and Uygur states, lived along the banks of the Sır Darya River and on the steppes lying to the north of this river in the first half of the tenth century1. Those were nomadic people, and they made a living out of stock breeding, so they needed summer pastures and winter quarters on which they had to raise their animals and survive through cold winter days comfortably. In addition to them, there were sedentary Oghuz groups. In those days, the sedentary Oghuz groups were called "yatuk"2 which means lazy. This indicates that leading a nomadic life was more favorable then. Although most of the Oghuz groups led a nomadic life, they did have a certain political and social structure and order. There are various views about the meaning of the word “Oghuz”, and according to dominant one among them, the word means “tribes”, and “union of tribes” or “union of relative tribes”3. So, in other words, the word had organizational and structural connotations in the political and social sense. The Oghuz groups, consisting of a number of different boys or tribes, can be examined in two main groups since the earlier periods in the most classical age of Prof. -
Salur Kazan Ve Yuvarlanan Taş Anlatısı Hakkında
Received: 20.05.2020 Accepted: 30.05.2020 Published: 14.06.2020 JOTS, 4/2, 2020: 437-468 Salur Kazan ve Yuvarlanan Taş Anlatısı Hakkında About the Story of Salur Qazan and the Rolling Stone A s l ı h a n H AZNEDAROĞLU Düzce University (Düzce / T u r k e y ) E - m a i l : [email protected] Salur Qazan, who has a special place in our epic tradition, is the hero who has surrounded all the narratives of the Günbäd manuscript, which was unearthed in 2019 and introduced to the world of science. On the pages 38-39 of the manu- script, Qazan’s heroism about the “holding the rolling stone” was explained in the soylama, which he expressed in his heroism. This narrative is a heroism of Qazan, which has been described as “epic stereotype” in Shejere-i Terākime, Topkapi Oγuz- name and the Dresden manuscript of Dede Qorqut Book. It is also seen that this nar- rative has a reflection among the Altay Turks. The analysis of this narrative, which is full of uncertainties both in terms of the location of the event, the nature of the event and the parties of the event, is an important contribution to the uncovering the ground on which epics are fed. In this analysis, it is aimed to compare the text with parallel narratives and to reveal the similarities and differences between the texts and to reveal the scope of the text's expression. Key Words: Dede Qorqut, Salur Qazan, Günbäd manuscript, Ala Čaqun Čolpa Daγ, the rolling stone, wine table. -

The Tree of Life Design – Part 1
S. Busatta– The Tree of Life Design – Part 1 Cultural Anthropology 205 – 220 The Tree of Life Design From Central Asia to Navajoland and Back (With a Mexican Detour) Part 1 Sandra Busatta Antrocom-Onlus sez. Veneto The Tree of Life design is thought to be originated in Central Asia possibly from shamanic cultures, and can be seen as a favorite pattern in many carpets and rugs produced in a huge area, from Afghanistan to Eastern Europe. From the Middle East, together with other Christian and Moorish designs, it was imported to Central America where it mixed with the local versions of Tree of Life. Traders who brought Oriental carpet patterns to be reproduced by Navajo weavers made it known to them, but it was only after the 1970s that the design has had a real success together with other pictorial rugs. Introduction In the late 1970s for the first time I saw a number of samples showing the so-called Tree of Life design embellishing the walls of a restaurant in the Navajo reservation. In one or two trading posts and art galleries in the Southwest I also saw some Tree of Life rugs made by Navajo weavers, and also some Zapotec imitations, sold almost clandestinely by a roadside vendor at a ridiculously low price. The shops selling Mexican artesanias, both in the US Southwest and in Mexico, however, displayed only a type of Tree of Life: a ceramic chandelier- like, very colorful item that had very little to do with the Tree of Life design in the Navajo rugs and their Zapotec imitations. -

3 the States of the Oghuz, the Kimek and the Kïpchak
ISBN 978-92-3-103467-1 The Oghuz 3 THE STATES OF THE OGHUZ, THE KIMEK AND THE KÏPCHAK* S. G. Agajanov Contents The Oghuz ........................................ 66 The Kimek ....................................... 74 The Kïpchak ....................................... 77 The Oghuz During the ninth and tenth centuries, the nomadic Turkic Oghuz tribes formed a principal- ity on the middle and lower reaches of the Syr Darya (Jaxartes), in the Aral Sea region and the area of the northern Caspian. There are a number of obscure points in the history of the formation of the Oghuz people and principality in western Central Asia and Kazakhstan. The late S. P. Tolstov considered the home of the Oghuz to be the deserts and steppes of the Aral Sea region. In his view, they had lived there in ancient times before migrating from western to eastern Central Asia.1 In spite of its originality, however, this viewpoint did not gain general acceptance. Research in recent decades points to the conclusion that the Oghuz in western Central Asia originally came from the eastern T’ien Shan region. Oghuz historical tales relate that the headquarters of their supreme ruler or leader was at one time situated on the shores of Lake Issyk-kül. According to different versions of this legend, there was strife among the Oghuz caused by the hostile relations between their ruler and his son, Oghuz Khan. In his * See Maps 1 and 2. 1 Tolstov, 1948. 66 ISBN 978-92-3-103467-1 The Oghuz account of this old legend, the Persian historian Rash¯ıd al-D¯ın, who lived at the end of the thirteenth and the beginning of the fourteenth century, wrote that after a lengthy struggle, Oghuz Khan seized his father’s lands in the district of Talas. -
