ENGIN YENAL.
One hundred and one buildings and sites, Türkiye.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (32 x 24 cm). In English. 504 p., ills. One hundred and one buildings and sites, Türkiye. This treatise on the built environment and consequentially man-made structures in Anatolia starts from Prehistory and focuses on the dimensions of space and time in particular. Contemporary approaches to cultural historiography not only aim to highlight the continuity of the dimensions of Space and Time but also to effectively examine and explain the pursuit of the 'environmental-formal-institutional-semiotic and evolutionary.' This comparative study covers historic periods and epochs in Anatolia, the major determinant space, whose history is now proven by archaeological findings to start around 500,000 BC. The built environment in Anatolia has a history of nearly twelve thousand years; the contextual consistency methodology followed here exerts buildings to examine the continuous stages of this cultural history in detail. Limiting the extent to 101 buildings has facilitated focusing on the comparison of their functional and formal features in a historical context; these landmarks only become iconic and gain meaning in a mutual relationship with their immediate environment. This book is a compulsive experimental attempt in contemporary cultural historiography with the classifications and chronological order that have enabled the comparisonof functional and stylistic evolution.

Anadolu topraklarinda mozaik.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In special commercial box. 4to. (33 x 33 cm). In Turkish. 511 p., color ills. The book titles 'Mosaics of Anatolia' is the variegated great adventure of the square that has existed on earth for thousand of years. At the same time, when each mosaic square is aligned next to each other they are like the sentences created by the words in a literary text: as an epic of the concept of depiction inspired by the myths of past civilisations. In this great adventure, the art of mosaics sometimes focused on the legends told by people, sometimes on daily life and sometimes on holy texts by tracking the past of nature at all times. A great journey in the infinity of colourful cubes. Therefore, the subjects of our book are the squares of both reknowned and unknown cultures who have settled in and emigrated from Anatolian lands. Like the diary of a traveler, we have withessed and catalogued the existence of the art of mosaics in every part of Anatolia. Each and every one of them is a meaningful visual feast telling the stories of settling and emigrating civilisations. ISBN: 9786055495107. ARCHEOLOGY Anatolian civilizations History of art Mosaic.

Commagene: The land of gods between the Taurus and the Euphrates. An archaeological guide.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In English. 372 p. Color and b/w ills. "The country of ancient Commagene spreads between the Taurus Mountains and the Euphrates in South-Eastern Turkey. Located at the eastern fringe of the Mediterranean world Commagene has been a border region for many centuries. Rooted in Near Eastern traditions the country was exposed to frequently changing religious systems and political powers. Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Armenians, Seljuks, Crusaders, Mamluks, and Ottomans have left their mark on the fertile valleys and the barren hills. There are famous and much frequented places like the grave tumulus of the Hellenistic king Antiochos I on the Nemrut Dag, which is inscribed in the UNESCO world heritage list, or the roman city of Zeugma with its splendid mosaics. However, a considerably larger number of attractive monuments and sites - ranging from Hittite reliefs to impressive medieval castles - are to be explored in Commagene. This richly illustrated book provides a broad overview of the most important sites and their historical background. It aims at travellers in the region as well as readers interested in the history and archaeology of ancient Turkey.".

Pergamon: A Hellenistic capital in Anatolia.= Pergamon: Anadolu'da Hellenistik bir baskent.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (33 x 23 cm). In English and Turkish. 552 p., color and b/w ills. Since the establishment of the Attalid dynasty in the 3rd century bc the ancient city of Pergamon had been the capital and royal residence of the Attalid kingdom as well as a more or less independent Hellenistic polis with all its civic institutions. Consequently this book concentrates above all on Pergamon as a city and a royal capital, on its inhabitants and its sacred spaces, which feature so prominently in the urban fabric and include the Sanctuary of Athena, the Great Altar, the Asklepieion and the Red Hall (or Red Basilica). Although the chronological focus lies on the Hellenistic epoch, the articles in this volume cover a span from prehistory to the Byzantine period, as is essential if one is to understand the prerequisites for the city's development within its landscape, and also to appreciate how the legacy of Hellenism was handed down, changed, enriched and also destroyed in subsequent periods.

Mosaics of Antioch.
New English Original bdg. HC. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 23 cm). In English. 72 p., 50 color plates. "The book includes the finest of the Antioch mosaic pavements displayed in the Hatay Archaeological Museum in Antakya, Turkey. The pavements were brought to light in and around Antioch on the Orontes (Antakya), Seleucia Pieria (Çevlik) and Daphne (Defne) in 1932-37. The excavations have shown that in the whole area there was not a single better-class house without mosaic pavements decorating its entrance, halls, dining rooms, corridors and sometimes the bottoms of its pools. In addition to pavements which came from structures built in different periods, mosaics which came from the different levels of the same buildings have enabled scholars to construct a gradual and unbroken development of classical Roman mosaics covering its iconographic and stylistic changes from the first century of the Common Era to the beginning of the sixth.".

Mosaics in Istanbul.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (32 x 24,5 cm). In English. 175 p., color ills. "The book brings together the extant mosaics of the Great Palace (Büyük Saray Mosaic Museum), Hagia Sophia (Ayasofya Museum), the Virgin Pammakaristos (Fethiye Museum), St. Saviour in Chora (Kariye Museum) and Istanbul Archaeological Museums. Except for the few panels brought from elsewhere and now kept in the Istanbul Archaeological Museums, all of the mosaics in this book were made in Istanbul, known then as Constantinople. Chronologically, the earliest of these mosaics is from the late Roman period and the latest from the early fourteenth century. Even if they are far from giving the development of the art of mosaic in the capital these pavements reflect the importance that was afforded to this art. In this volume they are grouped under the name of the monument to which they belong. Constantinople suffered so many natural disasters and had to be rebuilt so many times that the mosaics which decorated the buildings of the late Roman/early Byzantine period, lie under modern buildings in the debris of fires and earthquakes. Unless some of these are encountered accidentally during construction work and salvaged, there is almost no hope of bringing them to light.".

Die Laodikeiakirche. Das Christentum im Lykostal.
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In German. 106 p., color ills. Die antike Stadt Laodikeia am Lykos wird seit 2003 ausgegraben und restauriert. -_~raggeber 'st das Ministerium für Kultur und Tourismus und die Pamukkale Jniversität. Laodikeia ist sowohl von den ehemaligen Dörfern und heutigen Stadtteilen Eskihisar, Goncali und Bozburun als auch auf drei Seiten von den Flüssen Asopos, <admos und Lykos begrenzt. Die antike Stadt liegt 6 km nördlich der Stadt Denizli. Hatte man früher angenommen, die Gründung ginge auf das 3- Jh. v. Chr. zurück, kam mit den Grabungsarbeiten eine Geschichte, die 5500 v. Chr. begann, zutage. In zahlreichen Erdbeben wurde Laodikeia zerstört, aber immer wieder aufgebaut. Nach dem verheerenden Erdbeben in der Regierungszeit von Focas (602-610) verließen die Überlebenden die Stadt jedoch endgültig und siedelten in Kaleici (heute in Denizli) und Hisarköy, am nördlichen Fuße des Salbakos (Babadag). Ihre erste Blütezeit erlebte die Stadt während der römischen Kaiserzeit, ihre zweite in der Spätantike, zwischen dem vierten und sechsten Jahrhundert, mit der Verbreitung des Christentums. Die Stadt wurde bereits früh Bischofssitz, da sie mit dem Titel eine der ersten Sieben Kirchen in Anatolien ausgezeichnet worden war. Dass sich mit dem Christentum der Lebensstil in Laodikea veränderte, insbesondere ab dem vierten Jahrhundert, nachdem die Stadt ein Wallfahrtsort geworden war, ist durch Ausgrabungen belegt. Ausdruck hierfür ist eine neue sakrale Architektur. In dieser Zeit wurden Teile von Peristylhäuser in Andachtsräme verwandelt und es entstand die Tradition der Familienkapellen. In dieser Arbeit wird zunächst knapp über die Verbreitung des Christentums in der Region berichtet und die Kirchenbauten werden im Überblick vorgestellt. Die im Jahr 2010 ausgegrabene Kirche von Laodikeia bildet dabei den Schwerpunkt. Über sie wird detailliert informiert, wobei sowohl auf ihre besondere Architektur mit Brunnen, Pastophoria, Synthronon, Ambo, Bema, Altar, Taufbecken und Korridore als auch auf die Ausschmückung der Wände mit Fresken und die der Böden mit Opus sectile und Mosaiken eingegangen wird. Darüber hinaus werden die Besonderheiten des Schutzdaches und der Besucherlaufsteg erläutert.

L'eglisa de Laodikeia. Le Christianisme dans la Vallee du Lykos.
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In French. 106 p., color ills. Depuis 2003, sur décision du Conseil des Ministres, je dirige, au nom du Ministère de la . . jre et du Tourisme et de l'Université de Pamukkale, les fouilles archéologiques et le ravail de restauration sur le site antique de Laodikeia du Lykos, situé à 6 km au nord de Denizli, entre les quartiers d'Eskis,ehir, Goncali et Bozburun (anciens villages) et cerné par trois rivières (Asopos, Kadmos et Lykos). Les fouilles ont permis de remettre en cause .a datation de la première occupation de la ville estimée au milieu du 3e s. av. J.-C. et ae proposer une occupation remontant aux années 5500 av. J.-C. La ville, qui a subi de -ombreux tremblements de terre, a toujours été reconstruite sauf après le tremblement de terre survenu durant le règne de Phocas au cours duquel la ville a été complètement rétruite. Le site a alors été abandonné et les habitants se sont installés à Kaleiçi (Denizli) et à Hisarkôy, sur les hauteurs nord de Salbakos (Babadag). La ville de Laodikeia connut son apogée pendant la période romaine puis l'Antiquité tardive, quand le christianisme fut diffusé du 4e s. au 6e s. ap. J.-C. La ville faisant oartie des sept Églises de l'Apocalypse, elle devint rapidement un siège épiscopal. _es découvertes faites sur le site montrent que le style de vie des habitants changea avec le christianisme et la ville devint un lieu de pèlerinage dès le 4e s. ap. J.-C, avec la multiplication des églises à travers la ville. On constate aussi que certaines pièces des maisons à péristyle furent converties en oratoire, donnant ainsi naissance à la tradition des chapelles familiales ultérieures. Dans cette brève présentation, l'accent a été mis sur la diffusion du christianisme dans .a région et la répartition des églises dans la ville. Les fouilles ont permis de dater l'église de Laodikeia en tenant compte des caractéristiques des vestiges et fragments découverts : les fontaines, le pastophorion, le syntronon, l'ambon, le bêma, l'autel, les fonds baptismaux, le corridor du baptistère, le baptistère, les revêtements en marbre, les fresques, l'opus sectile et les mosaïques. D'autre part, le projet de toit de protection ainsi que le parcours en acier et verre conçu pour les visiteurs sont présentés de manière détaillée.

Since 2003 excavations and restoration work at Laodikeia on the Lykos have been Undertaken by the author on behalf of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and Pamukkale University. The work conducted has shown that the history of Laodikeia, which is located within the borders of Eskihisar, Goncali and Bozburun neighbourhoods (former villages) and surrounded by rivers, namely Asopos, Kadmos, and Lykos, on three sides 6 km the north of Denizli, goes back to 5500s BC, not to the third century BC as was formerly thought. The city experienced numerous earthquakes, some very devastating, but always rebuilt; however, the earthquake in the reign of Focas (r. 602-610) razed her to the ground; the site was abandoned and the survivors settled at Kaleig of Denizli and Hisarkoy on the northern foots of Salbakos (Babadag). The city of Laodikeia had her high times during the Roman Imperial period and Late Antiquity when Christianity spread from the fourth to the sixth century. As the city was one of the first Seven Churches she became a metropolitan see quite early. Evidence uncovered indicates that the lifestyle of the city changed with Christianity and the city became a venue of pilgrimage as of the fourth century. With the spread of churches as architectural monuments across the city it is observed that some rooms in the houses with peristyle courts were converted to oratories building up a tradition of family chapels. This short work first tells briefly about the spread of Christianity in the region and churches in the city. This book's main focus is the Church of Laodikeia uncovered in 2010; therefore, you will find detailed information on its architecture, fountains, pastophoria, synthronon, ambo, bema, altar, baptistery and the corridor leading to it, frescoes, opus sectile flooring, and mosaics and the dating based on excavation finds. Furthermore, the protective roof project and the steel-and-glass catwalk for visitors are presented comprehensively.

Mosaics of Zeugma.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 23 cm). In English. 63 p., 40 color plates. "The discovery and rescue of the mosaics of Zeugma, the ancient Greco-Roman crossing point on the Euphrates, is regarded as the most important recent archaeological event. The book comprises some of the pavements on display in Gaziantep Museum, Gaziantep, Turkey. Zeugma, like the rest of the region was destroyed by the Sassanian king Shapur I in 256, when he raided the eastern lands of the Roman empire. Although the town showed some recovery in the early Byzantine period, and still served as a crossing, this was not comparable with its ancient glory. Thus it is not surprising that while the earliest of the mosaics discovered at Zeugma dates from the late first century CE, the latest belong to the period before the destruction. Almost all of the damage seen in the recovered mosaics, especially in the parts made of glass mosaic cubes, is the result of the fire which accompanied the Sassanian sack of 256. Research has shown that the tesserae of these mosaics were mostly produced from the coloured stone collected from the banks of the Euphrates, and supplemented by glass tesserae for missing hues such as dark green, orange, or light blue.".
