ÖZ: Bu makale; Van Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi adına, T.C. Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlı ğımızın izinleri ve Türk Tarih Kurumu Ba şkanlı ğının maddi destekleri do ğrultusunda, ba şkanlı ğımdaki ekip tarafından, “Artvin İli ve İlçelerine Yönelik Yüzey Ara ştırması” çerçevesinde elde edilen verilerden olu şturulmu ştur. Bir kısmı ilk kez tespiti yapılan söz konusu ta şınmaz kültür varlıkları; Artvin Merkez İlçe ba şta olmak üzere Hopa, Kemalpa şa, Borçka, Murgul ve Yusufeli ilçelerinde, toplam 16 adet Orta ça ğ’dan Osmanlı dönemi sonuna kadar uzanan süreçteki manastır, kilise, şapel, kale, cami ve köprü gibi yapılardan olu şmaktadır 1997 yılından beri yörede sürdürdü ğümüz incelemeler göstermi ştir ki, küçük bir co ğrafyada, zengin sayılabilecek oranda ta şınmaz kül- tür varlı ğı potansiyeli bulunmaktadır. Bu da bize, Orta Ça ğ’dan beri kırsal mimari gelene ğin, mevcut topog- rafyasına uygunluk içerisinde geli şti ğini do ğrulamaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Artvin, Manastır, Kale, Cami, Kırsal Mimari. Surface Research on Artvin Province and its Districts in 2019 ABSTRACT: This article is composed of the data from the “Surface Survey on Artvin Province and Its Dis- tricts”, conducted by the team led by me on behalf of Van Yuzuncu Yil University and with the kind permis- sions of Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Turkish Republic and the financial support of the Turkish Historical Society. The number of the immovable cultural assets in question, some of which have been determined for the first time, is 16, mainly in the Central District of Artvin, and in the districts of Hopa, Kemalpa şa, Borçka, Murgul and Yusufeli. They consist of structures such as monasteries, churches, chapels, castles, mosques and bridges dating back to the period from the Middle Ages to the late Ottoman period. Our investigations, which have been carried on by us in the region since 1997, show that in a small geography there is a potential for a wealth of immovable cultural assets. This finding shows us that since the Middle Ages, rural architec- tural tradition has developed in accordance with its current topography. Key Words: Artvin, Monastery, Castle, Mosque, Rural Architecture. Giri ş Artvin, Do ğu Karadeniz Bölgesi’nin en do ğu ucunda yer almakta olup, Gürcistan Cum- huriyeti ile kom şulu ğu bulunan; Arhavi, Hopa ve Kemalpa şa kıyı şeridinde, Artvin Merkez, Borçka, Murgul, Ardanuç, Şav şat ve Yusufeli ilçeleri ise iç kısımda olmak üzere 9 ilçeye sahip- tir. İlin tarihsel geçmi şi Eski Ça ğlara kadar götürülmeye çalı şılsa da eldeki verilerin ekseri- yeti Orta ça ğ dönemine aittir. Yüzeydeki verilerden yola çıkarak Orta ça ğda zengin bir Hıristi- yan kültürünün varlı ğı dikkat çekmektedir. 16. Yüzyılın ortalarından itibaren Osmanlı 76 AHBV Edebiyat Fakültesi Dergisi (HEFAD) Sayı 2 / 2020 Bahar İmparatorlu ğu içinde yer almaya ba şlayan bölge, 1878’de biten Osmanlı-Rus Sava şı sonra- sında Çarlık Rusya’nın i şgaline u ğramı ş ve 7 Mart 1921 yılında tekrar ana vatana kavu şma şansını yakalamı ştır. Van Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi adına 1997 yılında ba şlattı ğımız Artvin İli ve İlçelerine yö- nelik Yüzey Ara ştırmaları, T.C. Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlı ğı’nın izinleri ve Türk Tarih Kurumu Ba şkanlı ğı’nın kısıtlı destekleri ile yürütülmektedir. Bu bildirinin içeri ği, 2019 yılında yapılan Yüzey Ara ştırmalarına ait incelemelerine dayanmaktadır. Bu bildiri; bir kısmı ilk kez tarafımızca belgelenen ta şınmaz kültür varlıklarından olu ş- makta olup, a ğırlıklı olarak Artvin Merkez ilçesine ait köylerde olmak üzere; Hopa, Kemalpa şa, Borçka, Murgul ve Yusufeli ilçelerine ait toplam 16 adet Orta ça ğ’dan Osmanlı dönemi sonuna kadar uzanan farklı i şlevlere sahip ta şınmaz kültür varlı ğının hava foto ğraflarıyla desteklenmi ş biçimde anlatımını içermektedir. Bir kısmı daha önceki ara ştırmalarımız sırasında tespit ve incelemeleri yapılmı ş olmakla birlikte, güncel durumlarının belirlenmesi ve ula şılması mümkün olmayan kale yapılarının uzaktan da olsa ilk kez drone ile çekilmesi bizim açımızdan çok faydalı olmu ştur. Artvin Merkez İlçesi Aşağı Maden Köyü Camii: Kare planlı olan camiye, yakla şık 120 cm yüksekli ğindeki 6 basamaklı bir merdiven ile giri ş sa ğlanmaktadır. Caminin dı ş cephe duvarlarının kalınlı ğı 80 cm ile 100 cm arasında de ğişiklik göstermekte olup, duvarlar yöreye ait kaba yonu ta şları kul- lanılarak örülmü ştür. Kahverengi, gri, kiremit rengi ve devetüyü renklere sahip ta şlar arasında derz dolgu bulunmaktadır. Caminin kuzeyinde iki katlı son cemaat yeri; kuzeybatı kö şesinde ise tek şerefeli, üzeri sac ile örtülü fazla yüksek olmayan bir ah şap minaresi bulunmaktadır. Son cemaat yerinden camiye giri şte ceviz a ğacından yapılmı ş, yakla şık 180 cm yüksekli ğinde ve 100 cm geni şli ğinde, üzerinde oyma tekni ğinde yapılmı ş bitkisel motifler bulunan çift kanatlı bir kapı bulunmaktadır. Alt katta, bayanların namaz kılmı ş oldu ğu üst kattaki mahfil bölümünü ta şıyan 2 ah şap direk bulunmaktadır. Bu direkler ile mahfil bölümünde bulunan 6 adet ah şap direk üzerinde oyma tekni ği ile yapılmı ş zengin bitkisel ve geometrik süslemeler bulunmakta- dır. Caminin tavanında, merkezde ah şaptan yapılmı ş bir sekizgen süsleme mevcuttur. Sekiz- genin içi sarı, turuncu ve kahverengi boyayla boyanmı ştır. Yapı, 40.99249840 Enlem, 41.83652680 Boylam, 240 Ada ve 7 Parsel üzerinde yer almaktadır. Caminin kitabesi bulunmadı ğından yapım tarihi net olarak bilinmemekle birlikte, yapım tekni ği ve bölgedeki di ğer camiler de göz önünde bulunduruldu ğunda 1830’lu yıllardan sonra yapılmı ş (19. yy.) Osmanlı dönemi camilerinden oldu ğu dü şünülmektedir. Caminin tamamen ah şap olan tavanı, çatıdan su aldı ğından tavan ah şaplarında şişme ve renk de ğişiklikleri belirgindir. Ayrıca caminin güney cephe duvarı da çatı gibi su aldı ğından, cephe duvarı üzerinde sıva dökülmeleri ve renk de ğişiklikleri göze çarpmaktadır. Camide ivedi olarak çatı bakımının yapılmasına ve gerekli tedbirlerin alınmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Trabzon Vakıflar Bölge Müdürlü ğü tarafından köklü bir restorasyona tabi tutulması için ön pro- jelendirme çalı şmaları yapılmı ş ise de henüz uygulamasına ba şlanmamı ştır. Dr. Ö ğr.

YENER Oriental Institute, University of Chicago, 1155 East 58th Street, Chicago, IL 60637, USA and H. OÈ ZBAL Faculty of Arts and Sciences, BogÆazicËi University, Istanbul, Turkey The accumulated published database of stable lead isotope analyses of ore and slag specimens taken from Anatolian mining sites that parallel the Black Sea coast has been augmented with 22 additional analyses of such specimens carried out at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Multivariate statistical analysis has been used to divide this composite database into ®ve separate ore source groups. Evidence that most of these ore sources were exploited for the production of metal artefacts during the Bronze Age and Phrygian Period has been obtained by statistically comparing to them the isotope ratios of 184 analysed artefacts from nine archaeological sites situated within a few hundred kilometres of these mining sites. Also, Appendix B contains 36 new isotope analyses of ore specimens from Central Taurus mining sites that are compatible with and augment the four Central Taurus Ore Source Groups de®ned in Yener et al. (1991). KEYWORDS: BLACK SEA, CENTRAL TAURUS, ANATOLIA, METAL, ORES, ARTEFACTS, BRONZE AGE, MULTIVARIATE, STATISTICS, PROBABILITIES INTRODUCTION This is the third in a series of papers in which we have endeavoured to evaluate the present state of the application of stable lead isotope analyses of specimens from metallic ore sources and of ancient artefacts from Near Eastern sites to the inference of the probable origins of such artefacts.

  • Lichens from the Amasya, Ã⁄Orum, and Tokat Regions of Turkey
    MYCOTAXON Volume 109, pp. 181–184 July–September 2009 Lichens from the Amasya, Çorum, and Tokat regions of Turkey Kadir Kınalıoğlu [email protected] Giresun University, Faculty of Science and Arts, Department of Biology 28049, Giresun, Turkey Abstract — A total of 209 taxa were identified from 20 sampling stations in the Turkish provinces of Amasya, Çorum, and Tokat. 165 taxa are reported as new from Tokat, 63 for Amasya and 56 for Çorum. Three taxa, Leptorhaphis parameca, Ramalina pontica, and Seirophora contortuplicata, are newly recorded for Turkey. For each taxon, habitat and distributional data are presented. The complete checklist is available onhttp://www. mycotaxon.com/resources/weblists.html Key Words — biodiversity, lichenized fungi, biota, new records Introduction An increasing number of studies on the lichen biota of Turkey have been carried out in the last decade (Aslan et al. 2002, Candan & Özdemir Türk 2008, Güvenç et al. 2006, Halıcı et al. 2007, John et al. 2000, John & Breuss 2004, Kınalıoğlu 2008, Oran & Öztürk 2006, Tufan et al. 2005). Nevertheless, large gaps remain in the knowledge of lichen distribution in Turkey. Among the particularly neglected areas are Amasya, Çorum, and Tokat. Few publications report any lichens for Amasya or Çorum (John 1999, 2000, John et al. 2000, Çobanoğlu & Akdemir 2004, Leuckert & Kümmerling 1991, Lumbsch & Feige 1999, Steiner 1916, Verseghy 1982).

Email: [email protected]. Abstract: This study presents a case study on the heavy metal analysis of soil and plant samples around the Murgul copper mine, one of the first and most important mining areas in Turkey. An attempt has been made to investigate the status of trace elements like Al3+, Fe2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Pb2+, Ni2+, Co2+ and Cd2+ in soils and plants. The sampling localities were taken from 500 m, 600 m, and 1000 m altitudes around the factory and at 1400 m in the forest zone. The aboveground parts and foliage ash of Silene compacta, Tussilago farfara, Smilax excelsa, Rhododendron ponticum, R. luteum, and herbal mix were analysed. The results of analysis have revealed the minimum and maximum concentrations measured in the plants as follows; aluminium (20-8985 mg kg-1), cadmium (0.0- 0.5 mg kg-1), cobalt (0.0-5.5 mg kg-1), copper (0.0-347.5 mg kg-1), iron (25-9320 mg kg-1), lead (2-51 mg kg-1), nickel (1.5-16.5 mg kg-1), and zinc (13.0-221.0 mg kg-1).
