  • Monuments, Materiality, and Meaning in the Classical Archaeology of Anatolia
    MONUMENTS, MATERIALITY, AND MEANING IN THE CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF ANATOLIA by Daniel David Shoup A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Art and Archaeology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Elaine K. Gazda, Co-Chair Professor John F. Cherry, Co-Chair, Brown University Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Christopher John Ratté Professor Norman Yoffee Acknowledgments Athena may have sprung from Zeus’ brow alone, but dissertations never have a solitary birth: especially this one, which is largely made up of the voices of others. I have been fortunate to have the support of many friends, colleagues, and mentors, whose ideas and suggestions have fundamentally shaped this work. I would also like to thank the dozens of people who agreed to be interviewed, whose ideas and voices animate this text and the sites where they work. I offer this dissertation in hope that it contributes, in some small way, to a bright future for archaeology in Turkey. My committee members have been unstinting in their support of what has proved to be an unconventional project. John Cherry’s able teaching and broad perspective on archaeology formed the matrix in which the ideas for this dissertation grew; Elaine Gazda’s support, guidance, and advocacy of the project was indispensible to its completion. Norman Yoffee provided ideas and support from the first draft of a very different prospectus – including very necessary encouragement to go out on a limb. Chris Ratté has been a generous host at the site of Aphrodisias and helpful commentator during the writing process.

  • Vazelon (Zavulon) Monastery
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 6, No. 1; January 2016 A Lesser Known Important Cultural Heritage Source and Religious Tourism Value in Turkey: Vazelon (Zavulon) Monastery Ahmet Çavuş, PhD Atatürk University Faculty of Tourism Departmant of Tourism Guidance Erzurum, Turkey. Abstract Vazelon which is also known as Zavulon Monastry is located within the borders of Macka district Kiremitli village in North eastern Trabzon. It is 45 km away from Trabzon, 15 km away from Macka and its height is 1210 m. The name of the monastery is assumed to be originated from Mount Zavulon and this religious structure was built at the foot of the mountain cliff. Monastery was originally built as a chapel in 270 A.C. at the intersection point of Yahya stream and Degirmen stream. However it was demolished as a result of Persian attack in 6th century and many priests were killed. After this event, it was built in current location at three different stages. The monastery devoted to John the Baptist was a 4 storey building. At that time, it was an institution having school, court, and notary and guest house functions as well as providing service as a place of worship and for raising monks. The priests in the monastery were noting and saving the political, economical and social subjects since 13th century. After the population exchange agreement between Turkey and Greece in 1923, Vazelon monastery was emptied. This place which was left alone, was later destroyed by treasure hunters and although the main frame of the building remained standing, trees grew inside and it took a ruined view.

The sample was identified based on both conventional methods and ITS rDNA region-based molecular phylogeny. By taking into account the high sequence similarity between the sample (ANK Akata & Altuntaş 690) and Battarrea phalloides the relevant specimen was considered to be B. Phalloides and the morphological data also strengthen this finding. In this study, photos of macro and microscopic structures, a short description, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of spores and elaters, and the ITS rDNA region-based molecular phylogeny of the samples were given. Also, the distribution of B. phalloides specimens identified thus far from Turkey was revealed for the first time in this study.

  • Journal I Bodrum Issue
    ESCAPE JOURNEY INTO OUR CULTURE JOURNAL � I BODRUM ISSUE EDITOR'S NOTE 3 Dear friends, ’74Escape is a community platform that was born from a passion for exploring other people’s cultural experiences and making new discoveries through travel. Over time, the platform evolved into a wonderful collaborative and intimate space where we connect with friends from around the world, and share new finds and unforgettable memories. The emergence of a curated space and shop from this platform has always seemed like the next inevitable step. While the idea has long been on my mind, it was after enduring these last difficult months that the true philosophy and purpose began to take shape. Before we look outwards and explore, we must look within, and appreciate and celebrate our roots. Born from a heightened sense of unity and solidarity, this edition of the ’74Escape Store & Gallery hence intends to turn inwards, and shine a light on the creative and cultural production happening in Turkey today. This felt like an important time to activate our platform for the benefit of our community, and we have aimed to support our friends and their much loved brands, as well as newly discovered local designers, artisans and artists of Turkey. Istanbul is home to so many spirited brands that each share a unique vision and story that is rooted in our rich history, heritage and culture. The ’74Escape Store & Gallery at Maçakızı Bodrum this summer, celebrates and champions our homegrown talent, and offers a curated selection of exquisitely crafted contemporary works and products inspired by the Mediterranean way of life.
