ILHAN AKSIT.
Antique cities of Turkey.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. In English. 396 p. Anatolia in the Antique age was divided into many different regions such as Troas, Ionia, Aiolis, Mysia, Lydia, Phrygia, Caria, Lykia, Pamphylia, Pisidia, Cilicia, Commagene, Galatia, Bithynia and Pontus which had about a total of 1500 antique city settlements. Some of these city settlements were left under the soil as a result of the modern construction industry while many more still wait for being searched and excavated. Today, 133 of these cities were excavated and arranged. This work aims at introducing the relatively significant ones of the cities mentioned above that were excavated. We tried to use support the narrative with the city plans and up-to-date photographs. Although it was quite difficult to choose the photographs out of a rich collection of thousands of pictures that reflected the geographical riches of the land, we enjoyed the challenge and did our best in utmost meticulousness in picking the ones that we thought were fitting. Contents; Historic Places in Anatolia, Neolithic Yenikapi, Troy, Alexandria Troas, Smintheion, Parion, Assos, Antandros, Pergamon, Aigai, Smyrna, Sardis, Metropolis, Ephesos, Kolophon Notion Klaros, Teos, Magnesia Ad Maendrum, Nysa, Aphrodisia, Hierapolis, Laodiceia, Priene, Miletos, Didyma, Herakleia, Iasos, Stratoniceia, Labraunda, Halicarnassos, Bodrum, Knidos, Caunos, Tlos, Pinara, Telmessos, Xantos, Letoon, Patara, Antiphellos, Kekova, Cyaenai, Myra, Andriace, Rhodiapolis, Limyra, Arycanda, Olympos, Phaselis, Termessos, Aizanoi, Sagalassos, Attaleia, Perge, Aspendos, Side, Selge, Korakesion, Anemourion, Seleuveia, Diokaisareia, Narlikuyu-Heaven and Hell, Elaiussa Sebaste, Kanytelis, Pompeiopolis, Tarsus, Anavarza, Castabala, Comana, Ayas, Misis, Karatepe, Antiocheia, Cappadocia, Catalhoyuk, Kultepe-Kanesh, Alacahoyuk, Hattusa, Gordion, Midas-Kohnus Valley, Amastris, Sumela, Ani, Van Castle, Nemrud, Harran, Gobeklitepe, Zeugma, Bibliography.

Chora: Byzantium's shining piece of art.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In publisher's special slip-case. Oblong 4to. (29 x 38 cm). In English. 240 p., color ills. Located in the Edirnekapi neighborhood of Istanbul and dating as far back as the 6th Century, the Church of Chora Monastery (Kariye Mosque) stands out as a noteworthy Byzantine work of art in the world of art history with its mosaics and frescoes. The monastery was renovated during the Palaeologos Dynasty, also known as the "Third Golden Age" of Byzantine Art, and has spectacular mosaics and frescoes which are at the heart of our work. Before studying these mosaics and frescoes in our book, we provided the vast history of the period in an effort to clarify the themes featured on the panels. Also included in our book is the life story of Theodore Metochites, a versatile administrator and the person behind the creation of the mosaics and frescoes of the monastery which represent the most beautiful examples of Byzantine art. There are mosaics in the exterior and interior narthexes of Chora depicting the lives of Jesus and Mary as well as religious stories, while its domes, arches and walls have both mosaics and frescoes concerning subjects that are interrelated and depicted mostly together and sometimes in different locations. For a holistic recounting of those related depictions that are placed independently from each other, repetitions were necessary at times. In addition to this world-renowned church which we tried to present to you within a broad time line, we also covered the other churches in Istanbul that belong to the Byzantine Period, in the last section of our book. We ended our journey with these churches and monasteries, which are also significant in Byzantine history.

The poetry nature etched on earth: Cappadocia.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In publisher's special slip-case. Oblong 4to. (29 x 31 cm). In English. 276 p., color ills. Having explored Anatolia in the 1720s on behalf of King Louis XIV, Paul Lucas subsequently wrote about the region in his memoirs. This is what he had to say about Cappadocia; "The only thing I know is that I have yet to encounter a more mysterious and stranger monument than this place in all of Europe." He was followed to the region by Charles Texier about 130 years later, who expressed his amazement with what he had seen in this manner;"I have not heard of the existence of such a continual and imaginary natural occurrence in any other place on Earth." Dating back millions of years ago, Cappadocia was rediscovered by Europeans during the 18th century. The region was declared one of the world's natural and cultural sites of extraordinary beauty by the United Nations' Education, Science and Culture Organization (UNESCO) on December 6th 1985 and put under conservation as a National Park on November 24th 1986. Its place on the Global Heritage List attests to the region's unique character on the planet from the aspects of its geological formations, its natural heritage, as well as Cappadocia's religious and cultural history.
