Full textAbstract:
Ottoman coins have been registered in the Czech Lands since the beginning of the 18th century and have been systematically documented since the mid-19th century. The latest actualization comes from 1996, but the following massive use of metal detectors showed a serious need for a new summarization. Up until 2018, some 151 hoards/ single finds with the Ottoman coins, forgeries, and jetons have been registered in the territory of the Czech Republic. These coins came to the mentioned territory via the Ottoman European expansion since the 16th century, and their flow reached its peak in the 17th century. The massive appearance of the Ottoman coins in Bohemia, partly in Moravia and Silesia, in the 17th century represents a phenomenon connected with the Thirty Years War. In south and central Moravia, it is explained by the direct military impact of the Ottoman armies. The later import of these coins is associated with the Napoleonic Wars and with the Austro-Hungarian period through its Balkan connection.

This article, briefly discusses on the coins in the Sarawak Museum collection: coins in general, the earliest coin produced, coin making, and some selected Islamic coins, representing the Dynasties of Umayyad, Abbasid, Fatimid, Anatolia Seljuk, Almoravid, Mamluk, Artuqid, Ilkhanid, Safavid, Qajar and Ottoman, that are on display at the Sarawak Islamic Heritage Museum. Each of these coins has certain characteristics that made them unique from coins of other Islamic periods. Among the common features found on Islamic coins are the use of the Hijri year (commencing with the migration of Prophet Muhammad PBUH from Mecca to Medina, which later marks the first year of the Muslim calendar) and Kufic inscriptions.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article revisits the bureaucratic career of Abdüllatif Subhi Paşa (d. 1886), the prominent Ottoman statesman and pioneering numismatist of the nineteenth century, whose much-overlooked early migratory life between Morea and Egypt shaped his contributions to the principal Tanzimat institutions. By weaving together fragmentary biographical accounts, institutional histories, and Subhi’s understudied academic work, the article also offers new historiographical approaches to nineteenth-century Ottoman antiquarianism, archaeology, and museology. The varied trajectories of Subhi’s itinerant professional life allow us to trace intellectual networks between Istanbul and Cairo, academic initiatives of a diverse cast of Ottoman high officials, changes in the scope of the translation movement, and the growing centrality of history and its writing in cultural undertakings.

It is not for the first century already, that the composition of the monetary circulation of the Crimean Khanate in different periods of its history has been studied. As a result was developed an objective and largely consistent scheme of attribution and dating of its coins. But on the territory of the Khanate were not developed only local issues. Coins of the Ottomans, Moscow state, as well as of European rulers came in abundance on its lands, including and colonial coinage. Evidence of their active use has been preserved in the materials of Kadiasker books. Those books give information about the banknotes, their fluctuations and their rates against the Crimean and Ottoman currencies. However, there is hardly any reason to believe that we know everything about those means of payment. Indeed, the problem of circulation of both, imported and counterfeit coins made in the Crimean Khanate, has not still been properly studied. We believe that the issue of replicas was due to the high demand for large silver coins both on the territory of the Crimean Khanate and beyond, on the lands of the Moscow state. The problem was complicated by the fact that the Crimean khans, before Shahin Giray, could not mint money of great dignity because of the restrictions, imposed on their vassals by the Ottoman sultans. At the same time, the Crimea was an important element of the “Turkish path”, through which silver entered the Moscow state. Thus, the deficit of a large coin in it was very noticeable. In turn, the movement of large volumes of precious metal across the territory of the khanate facilitated the task of importing or producing on the spot fake coins that came to end consumers along with real money. And, indeed, we were able to identify cast imitations of the florins of Zwolle and the county of Oldenburg. They were discovered on the territory of medieval Kezlev. Judged by the primitiveness of technology and low quality of products, we believe that these replicas could not be delivered to the peninsula. Most likely, we should talk about local imitations. We give an affirmative answer to the question of the possibility of issuing replicas of a European coin on the territory of the Crimean Khanate.

The article focuses on the attribution of one gold and two copper coins discovered by the Russian Archaeological Mission of the Institute of Oriental Studies RAS in the ancient Egyptian necropolis of Giza. Coins come from mixed fillings of the burial shafts of the Ancient Egyptian rock-cut tombs of the second half of the 3rd millennium B.C. According to the archaeological context, the coins belong to the stages of the destruction of ancient burials that took place during the Middle Ages and Modern times. One of the coins is a Mamluk fals dating back to the first half of the 14th century A.D., the other two belong to the 1830s — the Ottoman period in Egypt, and are attributed as gold a buchuk hayriye and its copper imitation. Coins are rare for the ancient necropolis and are mainly limited to specimens of the 19th–20th centuries. In general, taking into account the numerous finds of other objects — fragments of ceramic, porcelain and glass utensils, metal ware, glass and copper decorations, we can talk about the dynamic nature of human activity in the ancient Egyptian cemetery in the 2nd millennium A.D. Egyptians and European travelers used the ancient rock-cut tombs as permanent habitats or temporary sites, leaving material traces of their stay.

Abstract It is generally accepted that debasement greatly contributed to the economic and consequently also social problems of the Ottoman Empire in the late 16th/early 17th century. The numismatic data derived from the Beçin coin hoard, closing under sultan Ahmed (1603-1617) greatly challenges this view. Metal analysis has shown that only the overall weights of the coins were reduced; the fineness of silver remained unchanged at least until the 1610s.

Full textAbstract:
The problem of the money counterfeiting in Russian Empire has long been out of sight of the scientists, in Ukraine doesn’t exist any single comprehensive work devoted to the study of this problem. In the period of the Russian Empire rule in Ukraine, the counterfeiting of gold coins acquires its own features and tendencies. This article introduces into the scientific circulation the materials of the state historical archives criminal cases, newspapers and museum collections related to the falsification of the gold coins in Ukraine. During the XVIII century the gold coins were little known to the public, that’s why the cases of falsification of them through the historical sources are unknown. Before the middle of the XIX century the counterfeiting of the foreign gold coins was widespread. The traditional crime was clipping of the gold and silver coins, which was also fixed in the studied period. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, due to the small number of Russian gold coins in the circulation, the counterfeiters used foreign Holland ducats and Ottoman mahmudis as a model. Counterfeiting of the Russian gold coins has been known since the middle of the 19th century. False semi-imperials are known from Ukrainian finds, although analysis of the sources indicates their potential importation from the Baltic provinces, where they were probably manufactured. With the introduction of the gold standard in Russian Empire, the new coins are rapidly gaining a high popularity. Extensive use of the new gold coins leads to the falsification of almost the entire line of the denominations. Even the rarest gold coin of 7 rubles and 50 kopecks, minted only in 1897, was identified in Zhytomyr. Counterfeits of the gold coins also came to the Ukrainian provinces from the neighboring regions, as in 1911 the fact of importation of the counterfeit imperials was revealed from Nakhichevan. The First World War has radically changed the principles of the money circulation in Ukraine. The huge was expenses and the financial crisis led to a «coin hunger», the use of money substitutes and speculation with small coins. The gold coins were purposefully withdrawn from the population in exchange for paper banknotes. We suggest that the known today specimens of the counterfeit coins made for the loss of the money circulation could have been made during the financial crisis of the WWI.

Full textAbstract:
From the Ottoman conquest in 1459 to the monetary reform launched in 1868 Serbia was under the full monetary suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire and did not have the right to mint her own coinage. The first half of the nineteenth century, however, saw the first signs of monetary autonomy. When in 1815 the Porte granted Serbian authorities the right to collect taxes, currency exchange rate lists began to be issued in Serbia determining the kind and price of foreign currencies acceptable for tax payment. When, in accordance with the hatti-sherifs of 1830 and 1833, Serbia's vassal taxes to the Ottoman Empire were united into a single monetary tribute to be paid annually in gold currencies, a dual accounting monetary unit was introduced as protection from Ottoman debased silver currency. A true monetary autonomy, however, was only achieved with the monetary reform carried out between 1868 and 1880, when a limping gold standard in accordance with the standards of the Latin Monetary Union was introduced de iure. After more than four centuries of using only foreign currencies in circulation, the minting of silver coins was reestablished in Serbia and a Serbian gold coin was minted for the first time. While adopting the minting standards of the Latin Monetary Union Serbia had never become a member.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper focuses on how early Qajars established their rule and legitimacy. At first, Āqā Mohammad Khān, the first shah, imitated other rulers since Nāder Shāh, such as Mohammad-Hasan Khān Qājār, Āzād Khān Afghān, and Karim Khān Zand, in his coins and documents. Like his predecessors, he also tried to install a Safavid prince at Tehran as a puppet ruler. However, following his official coronation and his conquest of Iran, he changed the format of his royal edicts and issued extraordinarily heavy gold coins. Nevertheless, neither Āqā Mohammad Khān nor his successors created an official genealogy to legitimize their rule, instead modifying a genealogical tree of Ottoman origin to juxtapose their names alongside those of other royal families without connecting themselves directly to Biblical or Qurʾanic ancestors. The early Qajar case reveals new methods of establishing dynastic legitimacy which differed from the approach of earlier dynasties in the Persianate world.

Full textAbstract:
Starting from the final decades of the sixteenth century, Ottoman intellectuals were deeply concerned with what they perceived to be the decline of their traditional order. This decline consciousness, which later crystallized into a reform literature, is reflected in the works of this period's major historians.Chapter I surveys the development of Ottoman historiography prior to the late sixteenth century, with the aim of highlighting the novelty of the critical perspectives developed by historians of the era like Ali, Lokman and Selaniki. The attitudes and analyses of these historians concerning disturbing economic processes such as monetary turbulence and price movements constitute the focus of Chapters II and III respectively. These chapters argue that Ottoman decline consciousness grew partly in response to a keen awareness of newly emerging social and economic forces that Ottoman reform literature chose not to understand and accomodate but to resist and suppress. The failure of Ottoman intellectuals to come to terms with the new market forces of the early modern world was not due to an anti-mercantile bias, but to the primacy of politics in the Ottoman order. Chapter IV traces the international commercial activities of Ottoman Muslims in the context of a comparison between Ottoman decline consciousness and European mercantilism.

Full textAbstract:
This book illuminates the founding of the Ottoman Empire by drawing on Turkish, Greek, Arabic, and Latin sources, including coins, buildings, and topographic evidence. It describes the rugged homeland of the founder of the Ottomans, particularly his achievement in the context of the once mighty Byzantine Empire and its terminal stages. It also charts the progress of Osman's son Orhan, until the fateful moment in 1354 when his forces crossed into Europe and began their spectacular conquests. The chapter reviews the obscure origins of the Ottoman Empire, which ruled the Near East, dominated the Mediterranean, and terrorized Europe for centuries. It references scholarly monographs and editions on the history, literature, thought, and material culture of the Byzantine world.

Full textAbstract:
Karacahisar is a medieval castle located 7 km away from the center of Eskişehir. There is no definite information regarding the castle’s name before the Ottoman period. The name “Karacahisar” is first encountered in Ottoman chronicles. According to the narratives within these chronicles, Karacahisar was the Ottoman Beylik’s first conquest. Additionally, the castle is known as the site of the first sermon and the implementation of the initial tax. It is evident that Dorylaion (Eskişehir) was a multifaceted / multi-focused city during the Byzantine era, and Karacahisar served as one of the fortified areas safeguarding the city and the region. Evidence obtained particularly from coins indicates the presence of a settlement within the castle since the 7th century (Phase I). Also based on the distribution of archaeological findings, it is understood that the castle was used intermittently until the 11th century (probably depending on the defense needs of the city and the region), and a comprehensive repair and construction process took place in the last quarter of the 12th century (1175, during the Myrocephalon War) (Phase II). In the 13th century, Seljuk coins from that era were discovered in the castle, which was located on the border between the Seljuks and Byzantium. It was noted as a significant result that the castle was permanently conquered by Osman Gazi (1288), after the date represented by the Seljuk coin of Keyhüsrev III (1266- 1284). The architectural characteristics observed in the third phase of the castle belong to the Early Ottoman period. Archaeological findings indicate the existence of substantial habitation within the castle during this period. The earliest finding that can be dated to the Ottoman period is a silver coin attributed to Orhan Gazi. The presence of numerous coins associated with Murad I, Yıldırım Bayezid, Emir Süleyman, Çelebi Mehmed and Murad II within the castle further indicates that Karacahisar retained its strategic importance during these periods. These data are compatible with the information found in written sources. Apart from the Ottoman coins, the other coins found in the castle are mainly dated to the 14th and 15th centuries (Germiyanoğlu, Karaman, Menteşe, Aydınoğlu, Candaroğlu, Mamluk and Latin). Datable ceramics, the most intense group of finds of the excavations, also pointed to the same conclusion as the coins. The significant decrease in archaeological data starting from the second half of the 15th century also supported the information in the archive document stating that the castle was abandoned during the reign of Mehmed the Conqueror. The disappearance of the strategic importance of Karacahisar after the Ottoman Empire took complete control of the region during the reign of Mehmet the Conqueror was interpreted as the main reason for these results.

Full textAbstract:
Sources other than the Tradition can be exploited for information about Osman and Orhan—notably coins, inscriptions, and documents. Osman struck no coins but Orhan did—in a great variety. The ephemeral Sasa who conquered lands in the Maeander and Cayster valleys—well attested in the sources—struck coins in the name of the Ilkhans, Mongol rulers of Iran, and most of Asia Minor. Inscriptions confirm the extravagant titles that Orhan assumed and indicate growing wealth in the Turkish emirates in the fourteenth century while documents illustrate the relative poverty of Osman’s domains compared with those of Orhan. One of them, of 1324, gives some insight into the Ottoman family and its power in the Sangarius region.

Located in the city center of Kütahya, the citadel is situated on a hill overlooking the city. Taking into consideration the wall construction technique, it is thought that the present city walls and the bastions of the citadel, in particular, have been constructed during the Byzantine Period. Kütahya Citadel, known to have been inhabited during the Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman periods, is formed by three sections as Upper Citadel, Inner Citadel and Lower Citadel. Drawn up in 2020 with the authorization of the Kütahya Cultural Heritage Preservation Board, a recovery excavation has been performed within the scope of the “Kütahya Castle Lighting Project”. In the castle, canals have been opened around the restaurant and cafeteria, which have been built unauthorizedly within various periods since the seventies, and electrical cables and electricity supply panels have been placed. Both the cable ducts and the apparatus required for the lighting have been laid without inflicting any damage to the area, and the processes have been designed to be recyclable. Regular excavations have been initiated in the 2021 excavation season, and excavations have been conducted in ZZ-21, AB-21 and ZZ-22 grids in the Upper Citadel. Leveling works have been performed in the 10x10 trenches determined in the inner part of the 28th and 29th bastions. Alternative walls in brick and coarse stone order as well as coarse stone wall systems have been identified. Ceramics are amongst the first small finds unearthed within the two excavation seasons. Glazed and unglazed ceramic finds from the Roman, Byzantine, (Beylik) Principalities and Ottoman periods generally consist of plates, bowls, jugs, jars, cooking pots and bowls. Two silver coins minted in Constantinople (Istanbul) and Egypt during the Ottoman Period are also amongst the substantial finds recovered. Apart from coins, various metal objects and glassware finds appear as other artifacts unearthed. For more detailed information, please refer to the Extended Abstract at the end of the text

This study covers the evaluations of the history of the Kale-i Tavas city which was an undisrupted settlement spanning from prehistoric times until the 1950s of the Republican Period, of its transformation into a Turkish-Islamic city and the excavation findings. Located 1,5 km on the southwest of the Kale province of Denizli, the city has sustained its importance due to its location as a gateway connecting the costal and inner regions since its foundation until the time of its relocation. Being situated on a naturally fortified rock structure has made the city which was referred to as Tabae, Taba, Tabas and Tabenon in ancient sources which meant “rock” a center of attraction in every period. Even though there is no certain information about its foundation, it is understood that it was a place of continues settlement from prehistoric ages. Found on the south of the Tabai (Tavas) Plain, the city was the soul settlement amongst other cities in the plain to mint silver coins. Information on the pre-Alexander period of the Ancient City of Tabae is limited. The city had gained the status of “polis” during the rule of the Seleucids and continued to main its importance during the Roman Era. Tabae which had sent representatives to councils during the Byzantine Era was transformed into a Turkish-Islamic city in the 12th Century after the Turkish conquest of the region. The city which had been alternating between the Menteshe Principality and the Ottoman rules for a certain time finally became Ottoman territory in 1424. Based on the information given by the travelers about the Turkish- Islamic period of Kale-i Tavas, it is understood that Kale-i Tavas had been a prospering city with its Turkish-Islamic structures surrounded by city walls. Kale-i Tavas, which had been within the borders of the Menteshe Sanjak until 1887, was bound to Denizli after this date and continued its existences until the decision of its relocation due to the threat of landslide in 1954 during the Republic Period. With the excavations the have been uninterruptedly carried out since 2007, many findings that will shed light on the past of the Ancient City of Kale-i Tavas (Tabae) have been unearth. Among the excavation findings are statue fragments all dating to the Roman Era, ceramic artifacts belonging to various different civilizations spanning from the Bronze Age to the 1960s and coins pertaining to the Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine and Turkish-Islamic periods. As was considered a part of Kale-i Tavas’s history, the cemetery had also been included in the excavation activities since 2015. Three groups of gravestones have been identified in the Kale-i Tavas Cemetery which constitutes one of the most important Turkish-Islamic cemeteries with its more than 3000 headstones which include tombstones that continue the Central Asian tradition, inscribed tombstones dating to the Ottoman Era and headstones that carry the Ottoman tradition even though it had been made during the Republic Period.

Full textAbstract:
Old Van is located approximately 5 km west of the current city settlement, east of Lake Van. The city, which was the capital of the Urartian civilization, was used uninterruptedly until the beginning of the 20th century, and then became abandoned and ruined. Most of the architectural structures known today in the city, where many cultures left their mark, belong to the Middle Ages and Ottoman periods. The city has an intertwined and congested architectural texture shaped around the main roads running east-west and north-south and the narrow streets connecting to these roads. When city photographs taken at the beginning of the 20th century are examined, it is seen that the urban texture of Van consists of adjacent mud brick buildings, except for a few monumental buildings with stone architecture. Past research on Old Van has largely focused on the city’s archaeological phases before Christ. The first systematic excavation work in Old Van was carried out in the Ulu Mosque by Oktay Aslanapa between 1970 and 1972. The project, which was launched in 2022 regarding Old Van, aims to transform the city into a holistic cultural value. Within the scope of the project, which includes excavation, conservation, restoration, reconstruction, re-functioning and landscaping works, to make correct scientific interventions to the architectural structures that have survived to the present day within the urban fabric; It is aimed to obtain findings about the cultural history of the region through archaeological excavations and to revitalize the society’s perception of Old Van. In the excavations carried out in 2022 with the official permission of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the southern inner wall and the original road network of the city were studied. The inner wall displays a stronger architecture than the outer wall, with its adobe-filled and stone-covered structure. The outer wall has not survived to the present day. It has been understood that the walls have been subjected to a lot of intervention due to their role in defending the city throughout history. While the location of the circular and quadrangular bastions on the walls, which had to be constantly renewed, were clearly determined through excavations, some new data was also obtained about the entrance gates through which the city was entered. The need for new building types in the 19th century caused the architectural texture to extend beyond the city walls. The tight texture within the city resulted in the construction of small spaces even at the base of the city walls. It has been determined that the spaces created with adobe architecture were functional for civilian life and military purposes. While some findings indicating a blacksmith workshop were associated with civilian commercial life, traces of attack, fire and burnt documents found in a place unearthed near the Aziziye Barracks at the western end of the city revealed new thoughts that this place could be a document recording and storage unit. During the studies, groups of finds were encountered, most of which date back to the Ottoman period. Most of these are glazed and unglazed ceramic pieces that represent examples of daily use items of the civilian population. Additionally, Ottoman bronze coins, tobacco pipes, metal items, cannonballs and shrapnel, and burnt pieces of paper are among the artifacts recovered.

The authors present the coins discovered during the archaeological excavations carried out in 1993, 2001-2003, 2005-2008 and 2016. During the archaeological excavations at the Căpriana Monastery, 132 coins were discovered in the necropolis of the founders inside the Church of the Dormition of the Mother of God, within the filling soil under the floor of the church, in the necropolis around the church, in the wall of a building located to the west of the church, as well as in the cultural layer around the church. A total of 36 coins discovered inside the church come from 10 graves and its cultural layer, while the coins discovered in the necropolis around the church come from 7 graves. From the total number of 88 investigated graves, coins were discovered in 17 burial complexes (19%). Most of the graves contain a single coin, in grave 39 2 coins were found, in grave 56 24 pieces were deposited, representing a small treasure, and in another case (grave 18) a monetary deposit consisting of 83 coins was found. The coins deposited in graves represent several monetary areas. The European ones are issues of the Kingdom of Poland and the Holy German Empire issued starting from the third decade of the 16th century and up to 1627. Most of the coins from Căpriana come from the Ottoman Empire, representing coins issued in the 18th century, but also two copies with a large denomination - ikilik, issued by Selim III, being the most recent coins from the tombs.

Full textAbstract:
In this paper, through a multidisciplinary approach and analysis of available written material and material remains, we tried to shed light on the period of King Milutin's rule in the Kruševac area, laying the foundations for some future comprehensive research. According to the Žitije kralja Milutina (1324) by Archbishop Danilo II, this Serbian ruler stayed in the Kruševac area during a meeting with his brother King Dragutin in Mačkovac in the župa of Rasina, before the decisive attack on the state of Drman and Kudelin, most likely in the first half of 1292. Mačkovac can be reliably identified with today's village of the same name, about 8 km west of Kruševac. Based on the favorable geographical position not far from the crossroads of important medieval roads, it can be assumed that this settlement, before the rise of Kruševac in the second half of the 14th century, most likely enjoyed the status of a trg (mercatum, marketplace). At this time, the župa of Rasina was organized as a separate država (lord state) within Milutin's kingdom. Archaeological finds from the last decades of the 13th and the first decades of the 14th century are scarce, and we could talk only about two specimens of silver coins of King Milutin, accidentally found in the area of the villages of Laćisled and Mačkovac. The specimen from Laćisled, which was in secondary use as part of the jewelry, belongs to type 3.1, i.e. the dinar with the flag - de bandera, minted in Brskovo between 1282 and around 1310. The most significant written testimonies from the period of King Milutin's reign are two tombstone inscriptions. The first was carved on a massive river pebble, which today lies on the property of the Gajić family in the village of Zdravinje near Kruševac. It was performed in the Cyrillic alphabet in the Old Serbian language. He testified about the death of Marija Bogoslava (Bogoslav's wife), who died on June 8, 1292. In addition to Marija, the inscription also mentions her three sons, Radoslav, Radič and Vladel (Vladelj). This aristocratic family bore the family name or surname Poljak, from which the toponym Poljaci was derived, i.e. the name of their ancestral village in the neighborhood of Zdravinje. The second tombstone, discovered in 1967, was installed as an spolia in the bell tower of the church of St. Stephen in Kruševac (1377–1378). An inscription engraved on it speaks of the death of Vlkota, Medoš's son, who died between September 1, 1300 and August 31, 1301. It is characterized by East Slavic linguistic features, a consistent distinction between soft and hard semivowel (rabþ, vþ, sŠÿ1nþ, Vlýkota), as well as the use of the form oumér{iŠhþ1, in which é is used as a substitute for soft semivowel ý, which is attested in the tombstone inscription of the noblewoman Stanislava from the village of Gradec near Vidin (14th century), as well as in the fresco inscription between the figures of two deceased lords on the southern part of the western wall of the nave in the church of St. Nicholas in Staničenje near Pirot (1331–1332). Folk tradition links King Milutin to the origin of the toponym Milutovac near Trstenik, which is derived from the anthroponym Milutin, most probably according to the name of the lord or nobleman who owned this village during the late Middle Ages. According to local legend, King Milutin, as the greatest endower of Nemanjić family, was also the founder of the church of St. John the Baptist in Orašje near Varvarin. The original appearance and oldest past of this church, due to the absence of archaeological research and conservation research, as well as the lack of written sources, are not known to us. The existence of a medieval necropolis around its walls, dated on the basis of the appearance of tombstones in 14th and 15th century, and the mention of the priest Jovan in the Ottoman defter from 1476 indirectly indicate that this modest single-nave sacral building could have been erected as an endowment of some local lord during the period of Serbian independence before 1459, and could not be directly related to King Milutin. We hope that this article will draw the attention of the scientific public to the necessity of further multidisciplinary research of the medieval past of the Kruševac region, including the reign of King Stefan Uroš II Milutin, as one of the most famous Serbian medieval rulers.

Full textAbstract:
With the foundation of the Republic of Turkey in October 1923, modernization studies have been started throughout the country. The Republican authorities which adopted a new form of government independent of the Ottoman Empire had expectations for the city planning of Turkey according to the modernization rules of urbanism. After the proclamation of the Republic, the capital of the country was relocated from Istanbul to Ankara and the funds of the Republic were canalized to the construction of the new capital city. Following the creation of Ankara, in 1935, French architect and urban planner Henri Prost was invited directly to conduct the planning of Istanbul. He worked between 1936 and 1951 with a conservative and modernist attitude. Prost’s plans for Istanbul was based on three principal issues: the transportation (la circulation), hygiene (l’hygiène) and aesthetics (l’aesthetics). He gave importance on urban and public spaces (espaces libres) and proposed two public parks. One of these parks was considered as an archaeological park at the hearth of the Historical Peninsula (parc n1), the other one was considered as a park with cultural, arts and sports functions into the hearth of the Pera district which was the area extending from today’s Taksim Square to Maçka Valley (parc n2) and wherein these days the modern and new city was built. Only Park No2 (parc n2) was partially constructed in the 1940s following these park plans. However, the park has been transformed by the planning decisions taken over time depending on the political, cultural and ideological changes and this transformation process has been intensively discussed by the academic and professional field on the Istanbul’s and Turkey’s urban agenda. The focus of this study is to understand and define the process of transformation, and investigate the changing of significances of the Taksim-Maçka Valley from foundation of the Republic of Turkey to the present time. Accordingly, the first part of the paper presents the formation process of the area through the 1:2000 plan of Park No2 (parc n2) and the 1:500 plan of The Republic Square and the İnönü Esplanade in Taksim (la place de la République et l'esplanade İnönü à Taksim) which were prepared by Henri Prost. In the second part, the transformation process that occurs after Prost was discharged from his position is analyzed. The paper concludes with a discussion on the pros and cons of the transformation. In the study, the “digital urban history method” (telling the history of the city in the age of the ICT revolution) was used through the power of various direct and indirect sources with ArcGIS and 3D modeling techniques.
