Name, Last Name: Mihriban Kaya Signature: iv ABSTRACT CONSTRUCTING THE PRESENT OVER THE PAST: THE CASE OF BERGAMA Kaya, Mihriban M.S., in Restoration, Department of Architecture Supervisor: Assist. Prof. Dr. A. Güliz Bilgin Altınöz December 2014, 220 Pages Towns continuously need a controlled change and development so that they can sustain their existence in future. Changes in towns and conservation of traces of the past are also part of this process and there must be a balance between them. Each new intervention, which is conscious of the past of the town, preserves its underground and over ground heritage and contributes to the enrichment of the contemporary town. However, some interventions do not conserve traces of the past and are not in harmony with urban settlement in Turkey. Consequently, these interventions include a high variety of problems, and harm the identity of urban archaeological areas. Today in Turkey, similar interventions are seen in 3rd degree archaeological sites where new development is allowed. Therefore, the aim of the study is to define the process, design criteria and methods for new interventions while conserving archaeological remains in situ in order to guide design stages. This study is based on literature and archival studies, researches on study are and legal framework in Turkey. By utilizing proposed methodology, proposals for case study and contributions to existing legal framework in Turkey are v aimed. In the study, Bergama where the archaeological and urban settlement co- exists is selected as study area. Focusing on this aim, the study is structured in two main parts. The first part focuses on new intervention in urban archaeological context. A methodology for new interventions while conserving archaeological remains in situ is proposed in this part. The second part focuses on 3rd degree archaeological site in Bergama. In this part, the proposed methodology is applied to Bergama. As a result, the process, design criteria and methods are defined in detail for new interventions while conserving archaeological remains in situ in Bergama. Additionally, considering all of these, contributions to the existing legal documents related with this subject are presented. Keywords: Urban archaeological areas, new intervention in archaeological context, new interventions while conserving archaeological remains in situ, Bergama vi ÖZ GEÇMİŞİN ÜZERİNE BUGÜNÜ İNŞAA ETMEK: BERGAMA ÖRNEĞİ Kaya, Mihriban Yüksek Lisans, Restorasyon, Mimarlık Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Yrd. Doç. Dr. A. Güliz Bilgin Altınöz Aralık 2014, 220 Sayfa Kentler gelecekte varlıklarını sürdürebilmeleri için sürekli olarak kontrollü bir değiĢime ve geliĢime ihtiyaç duyarlar. Kentlerdeki değiĢimler ve geçmiĢin izlerinin korunması da bu sürecin parçalarıdır ve kendi aralarında bir dengenin olması gerekir. Kentin geçmiĢinin bilincinde olan her yeni müdahale, kentin yeraltı ve yer üstü mirasını korur ve çağdaĢ kentin zenginleĢmesine katkı sağlar. Ancak, Türkiye‟deki bazı müdahaleler geçmiĢin izlerini korumamakta ve kentsel yerleĢimle uyumlu olmamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, bu müdahaleler birçok farklı sorunu içermekte, kentsel arkeolojik alanların kimliğine zarar vermektedir. Bugün Türkiye‟de, benzer müdahaleler yeni yapılaĢmaya izin verilen 3. derece arkeolojik sit alanlarında da görülmektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalıĢmanın amacı, arkeolojik kalıntıları yerinde koruyan yeni müdahaleler için tasarım aĢamalarını yönlendirmek üzere süreci, tasarım kriterlerini ve yöntemleri tanımlamaktır. Bu çalıĢma literatür ve arĢiv araĢtırmalarına, çalıĢma alanı üzerindeki araĢtırmalara ve Türkiye‟deki yasal çerçeveye dayanmaktadır. Önerilen yöntemden faydalanarak, çalıĢma alanı için öneriler ve Türkiye‟deki yasal vii çerçeveye katkı sağlanması hedeflenmiĢtir. Bu çalıĢmada, kentsel ve arkeolojik yerleĢimlerin birlikte bulunduğu Bergama çalıĢma alanı olarak seçilmiĢtir. Bu amaca odaklanarak çalıĢma iki ana bölümden oluĢmaktadır. Ġlk bölüm kentsel arkeolojik bağlamda yeni müdahaleler üzerine odaklanır ve bu bölümde arkeolojik kalıntıları yerinde koruyan yeni müdahaleler için bir yöntem önerilmiĢtir. Ġkinci bölüm Bergama'daki 3. derece arkeolojik alana odaklanır. Bu bölümde önerilen yöntem Bergama‟ya uygulanır. Sonuç olarak, Bergama'daki arkeolojik kalıntıları yerinde koruyan yeni müdahaleler için süreç, tasarım kriterleri ve yöntemler detaylandırılmıĢtır. Ayrıca, bütün bu süreç göz önünde bulundurularak, konuyla ilgili mevcut yasal dokümanlara katkılar sunulmuĢtur. Anahtar Kelimeler: Kentsel arkeolojik alanlar, arkeolojik bağlamda yeni müdahale, arkeolojik buluntuları yerinde koruyan yeni müdahale, Bergama viii To all who always with me and believed in me, ix ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor Assist.

  • SWOT Analysis of West Anatolia in the Context of History and Culture Tourism Potential
    Central European Journal of Geography and Sustainable Development 2019, 1 (2): 44-52, Article no. 4 SWOT Analysis of West Anatolia in the Context of History and Culture Tourism Potential Tamer Baran¹,*, Serkan Bașol² ¹Pamukkale University; [email protected] ²Pamukkale University; [email protected] Received: 12 July 2019; Revised: 25 August 2019; Accepted: 30 August 2019; Published online: 25 October 2019 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The Anatolian peninsula is a unique geography which harbors almost all development stages of human history. As a piece of land that witnessed almost all the cultural, political, social and economic structures established by humanity including the first settlements built following the hunter-gatherer cultures, the start of agriculture, the foundation of the first central states following the principalities of the Bronze Age, the formation of empires following the Ancient Polis (city) States, Anatolia has a naturally rich archaeological heritage. In order to make use of this rich historical and cultural heritage in an efficient and sustainable way, especially in the tourism sector, one needs to determine the strengths and weaknesses of this potential. This study aims to make better use of the tourism potential of Western Anatolia by examining the strengths and weaknesses of the region with SWOT analysis method on Western Anatolia sample. Key words: tourism potential, tourism marketing, history and culture tourism, West Anatolia, SWOT analysis ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1. INTRODUCTION Historical and cultural tourism (HCT) can be defined as "a tourism phenomenon that aims to witness, experience and acquire knowledge about the concrete and intangible values belonging to the contemporary and ancient cultures and that consists of direct and/or indirect activities based on the acquisition of products and services related to this" [1].

These lectures were delivered in winter, 1971, at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and in spring, 1972, at the American Academy in Rome. The infectious enthusiasm of Gerald F. Else, Secretary of the Jerome Committee and a friend of many years, and the kindness of John Griffiths Pedley and other colleagues made the stay in Ann Arbor a memorable experience. We are deeply indebted to the Jerome Lec­ tures Committee and to its Chairman, Dean Donald F. Stokes for their generous hospitality. The American Academy in Rome is a wonderful haven for scholars. It was a great pleasure to renew contacts with the devotees of Rome, young and, old, and to learn from the Roman colleagues of their new, exciting discoveries.

  • Assessment of Tourism Effects on Geographical Area from the Perspective of Local Tourism Actors: Bergama Case (Izmir/Turkey)
    European Journal of Geography Volume 5, Number: 2:27 -42 April 2014 ©Association of European Geographers ASSESSMENT OF TOURISM EFFECTS ON GEOGRAPHICAL AREA FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF LOCAL TOURISM ACTORS: BERGAMA CASE (IZMIR/TURKEY) Emre ATABERK Ege University, Institute of Social Sciences, Human and Economic Geography Doctoral Programme, 35100, Bornova - İzmir, Turkey [email protected] Abstract In an area where tourism endures and starts to develop, its effects on economic and social structure and its positive and negative aspects can clearly be observed. It is possible to classify these effects as economic, social-cultural and environmental-ecological effects. Within the context of positive and negative effects of tourism, substantial “visual” changes may arise in natural and cultural geographical area. Thereby; while tourism can have a “standardisation” effect on the area, it can also establish “unique tourism environments”. Bergama is one of the most important districts for its development at cultural tourism in İzmir. Rich in its cultural attractiveness, tourism in Bergama has brought forth to some visual changes in town’s geographical area. “Functional” changes constitute the primary source of these changes. Because, any regulation and innovation realized for tourism or tourist is reflected directly on geographical landscape. For example; transportation services, historical and recreational area design, lightning, souvenir shops, accommodation, food&beverage and entertainment facilities, restoration studies etc. have created grave innovations/changes on conventional landuse. In this report; spatial changes in Bergama as a result of tourism will be analysed in time scale taking the views of local tourism actors into consideration, reasons will be questioned and critical approaches for obtained results will be put forward.

A PEPLOPHOROSIN CORINTH (PLATES 71-73) IT HE LATE Professor Schuchhardtrecently called attention to two original Greek statues of the Severe period, which he convincingly suggested were taken to Pergamon as booty from Greece.' In trying to pinpoint the place from which these sculptures were taken, he drew parallels with several contemporaryworks, and found that the sculptures from Pergamon resembled a peplophoros torso in the Corinth Museum.2 On the strength of this similarity, and of a passage in Pausanias (7. 16. 5), he concluded that the two statues from Pergamon were made in Corinth around 470-460 B.c. He advocated a similar date for the peplophoros still in Greece. These very valid conclusions, and the sensitive stylistic analysis of the sculpture involved will also bring, it is hoped, renewed attention to the statue in Corinth, which has recently been cleaned, set up with a slightly different tilt and rephoto- graphed, so that its study is now greatly facilitated.
