Abluted capitalism: Ali Shariati's critique of capitalism in his reading of Islamic Economy
(Sage, 2015) Şengül, Serdar
Islamic sociologist Ali Shariati is a leading figure of the reconstruction of religious thought in the Islamic world known especially for his anti-capitalist stance and leftist reading of Islamic history. In the philosophy of history that he developed, he classified religions as religions of tawheed (unicity of God) and religions of shirk (multiple gods). According to this new reading of history, the main struggle is not between religion and secularism but between religions of tawheed and of sheerk. The issue of the gaining and the distribution of the property is central to his classification. Shariati argued that followers of tawheed and of sheerk can be found in all religions including Islam. To support his argument Shariati explored how capitalistic understanding of Islam has been developed and legalised while anti-capitalist messages and orders of Islam were marginalised and illegalised just after the death of the Prophet Mohammed. He analysed the rivalry between his close companions over the content of a proper Islamic economic order and how this rivalry gave way to two contradicting understanding of Islam, marks of which can be seen today in the contemporary Muslim world. He coined the term abluted capitalism' to define the economic policies of Muslim sovereigns to make Islam compatible with capitalist economic principles.

Adaptions in subsistence strategy to environment changes across the Younger Dryas-Early Holocene boundary at Kortiktepe, Southeastern Turkey
(Sage Journals, 2022) Emra, Stephanie; Benz, Marion; Sıddıq, Abu Bakar; Özkaya, Vecihi
The site of Körtiktepe in southeastern Turkey is one of few sites in the Upper Mesopotamia basin that attests continuous, permanent occupation across the boundary from end of the colder, drier Younger Dryas (YD) into the comparatively wetter and warmer Early Holocene (EH). This allows for the study of the degree of environmental change experienced on a local level over this boundary as well as for the study of the adaptations that the occupants of the site undertook in response to these changes. The mammal assemblage of Körtiktepe remains relatively stable across the YD – EH transition with the main contributors to diet being mouflon (Ovis orientalis) and red deer (Cervus elaphus) in approximately the same quantities, although the contribution of aurochs (Bos primigenius) increases in the EH. The most significant changes can be seen in the shift in avifauna remains, with a sharp increase of waterbirds during the EH. It is proposed that these shifts reflect changes in the local environment with an increase in woodland cover as well as expansion of local waterways, which is generally consistent with previously published archaeobotanical studies. In terms of species exploited, mortality profiles as well as size distribution of mammals, a great deal of continuity is observed. This suggests that over this particular period the local impact of the beginning of the Early Holocene was not overly dramatic, allowing for cultural continuity of previously established subsistence strategies.
Ahmed Anzavur: Soldier, Governor, and Rebel. a Reevaluation of a Late Ottoman Military Man
(Oriental Inst Czech Acad Sci, 2023) Yelbasi, Caner
Following the Russian conquest of the North Caucasus, many Muslims from the region were exiled to the Ottoman Empire from the 1860s onwards. They were settled in different parts of the empire from the Balkans to Anatolia to the Syria and Iraq vilayets. By following this policy, the Ottoman state ensured that many Circassians would become part of the Ottoman army, ruling elites, harems and agricultural workforce. Anzavur Ahmed's family was one of them. Although he did not graduate from military school, he participated in the army during the war in Libya (1911), the Balkan Wars (1912-1913), and the First World War (1914-1918). He was also appointed as the governor of Izmit (1920). Anzavur Ahmet is portrayed as a rebel by Turkish official historiography, but in reality, he was much more than that. He was an Ottoman Governor, and supported by Ottoman administrators such as Damad Ferid and Ali Kemal, who were against the Kuvayi Milliye because they believed that the empire would eventually emerge from the chaotic atmosphere of the post-First World War period and make an agreement with the British. This article argues that although Ahmed Anzavur has been labeled a rebel and a traitor according to the official historiography, it is difficult to use these labels given the circumstances of his time.
Alman Oryantalizmi ve İslami Dönem Fars Edebiyatı: Bir Literal Geçişkenlik Örneği Olarak Josef von Hammer-Purgstall (1774–1856)
(2019) Avcı, Remzi
Avrupa‘da İslami dönem Fars dili, kültür ve edebiyatına duyulan ilginin tarihi oldukça eski bir geleneğe dayanmaktadır. Çeviri hareketleri bağlamında düşünüldüğünde İslami dönem Fars edebiyatının Avrupa ile metinsel temasının 17. yüzyılda başladığı söylenebilir. Coğrafya ve kültüre duyulan yakın ilgi seyyahların dil ve edebiyata ilgisini de beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu dönemde birçok Alman seyyah Safevi ülkesine seyahat etmiş ve tarih, kültür, dil ve İslami dönem Fars edebiyat üzerine geniş bilgiler toplayarak bunları Batı’ya aktarmıştır. 1634 yılında Fars edebiyatı klasiklerinden olan Şeyh Sa‘dî-i Şîrâzî’nin Gülistan adlı eseri Fransız oryantalist André du Ryer (1580-1660) tarafından Fransızcaya çevrilmiştir. Friedrich Ochsenbach (1606–1658), söz konusu çeviriyi 1636 yılında Fransızcadan Gulistan, das ist, Königlicher Rosengarten/Gülistan, Kraliyet Gül Bahçesi başlığı ile Almancaya çevirmiştir. Safevi ülkesinde medreselerde Farsça öğrenerek Sa‘dî’nin eserleri ile tanışmış olan Adam Olearius/Ölschläger (1600–1671), Almanya’ya döndükten sonra Safevi elçisinin yardımıyla Gülistan’ı 1654 yılında Persianische Rosenthal/Fars Güller Vadisi adıyla Almancaya çevirmiştir. 18. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru Avrupa’da Hâfız-ı Şîrâzî ve Şeyh Sa‘dî-i Şîrâzî gibi İslami dönem Fars şairlerinden Batı dillerine yapılan edebi metin çevirilerdeki artış oryantalistlerden şairlere kadar Almanca konuşulan dünyada da etkisini göstermiştir. Bu zaman dilimi Doğu ve Batı arasında ilişkide bir dönüm noktası olarak düşünülebilir. 19. yüzyılın ise ilk yıllarında diplomat, seyyah, tüccar ve oryantalistlerin yaptıkları çeviriler ile başlayan ve gelişen edebî oryantalizm Almanca konuşulan dünyada Doğu’dan Batı’ya bir Fars şiiri çeviri külliyatı bırakmıştır. Söz konusu külliyatın oluşumunda oldukça önemli bir yerde duran Avusturyalı oryantalist Josef von Hammer-Purgstall (1774-1856), Vinzenz Rosenzweig von Schwannau (1791-1865), Valentin von Huszár (1788-1850), Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832), Friedrich Rückert (1788-1866) ve August von Platen (1796-1835) gibi aydınlanmacı, klasik ve romantik akımdan ve birçok düşünür şair ve oryantalistin Fars dili ve şiirine ilgi duymalarında önemli bir etki bırakmıştır. Hammer-Purgstall’ın İslami dönem Fars şiiri çevirilerinden literal bir ağ yarattığınıiddia eden bu çalışma, onun çevirilerinin Alman edebi oryantalizminin inşa ve kurumsallaşmasında nasıl bir rol oynadığını incelemektedir

An analysis of age-standardized suicide rates in Muslim-majority countries in 2000-2019
(BMC Public Health, 2022) Zeyrek-Rios, Emek Yüce; Bob Lew; Lester, David; Kõlves, Kairi; Yip, Paul S. F.; Ibrahim, Norhayati
Background: This study examines the 20-year trend of suicide in 46 Muslim-majority countries throughout the world and compares their suicide rates and trends with the global average. Ecological-level associations between the proportion of the Muslim population, the age-standardized suicide rates, male-to-female suicide rate ratio, and the Human Development Index (HDI) in 2019 were examined. Methods: Age-standardized suicide rates were extracted from the WHO Global Health Estimates database for the period between 2000 and 2019. The rates in each country were compared with the age-standardized global average during the past 20 years. The countries were further grouped according to their regions/sub-regions to calculate the regional and sub-regional weighted age-standardized suicide rates involving Muslim-majority countries. Correlation analyses were conducted between the proportion of Muslims, age-standardized suicide rate, male: female suicide rate ratio, and the HDI in all countries. Joinpoint regression was used to analyze the age-standardized suicide rates in 2000-2019. Results: The 46 countries retained for analysis included an estimated 1.39 billion Muslims from a total worldwide Muslim population of 1.57 billion. Of these countries, eleven (23.9%) had an age-standardized suicide rate above the global average in 2019. In terms of regional/sub-regional suicide rates, Muslim-majority countries in the Sub-Saharan region recorded the highest weighted average age-standardized suicide rate of 10.02/100,000 population, and Southeastern Asia recorded the lowest rate (2.58/100,000 population). There were significant correlations between the Muslim population proportion and male-to-female rate ratios (r=-0.324, p=0.028), HDI index and age-standardized suicide rates (r=-0.506, p<0.001), and HDI index and male-to-female rate ratios (r=0.503, p<0.001) in 2019. Joinpoint analysis revealed that seven Muslim-majority countries (15.2%) recorded an increase in the average annual percentage change regarding age-standardized suicide rates during 2000-2019. Conclusions: Most Muslim-majority countries had lower age-standardized suicide rates than the global average, which might reflect religious belief and practice or due to Muslim laws in their judicial and social structure which may lead to underreporting. This finding needs further in-depth country and region-specific study with regard to its implication for public policy.
The analysis of Syriac philosophical activities in the context of translation movements
(SILA SCIENCE, 2012) Doru, Mehmet Nesim
Dealing with the Syriac tradition of philosophy through translation activities will provide us more accurate information about philosophical activities of Syrians spanning a wide period such as ten centuries. Otherwise, philosophical activities of Syrians will be limited to a one-way translation movement such as repeated failures in most of the time, and thus, we will be prevented to see the picture as a whole. This study deals with the periods and introduces their basic features.
The Analysis of the Effects of Olfactive Stimulus in Learning in Context of Educational Technology
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013) Ozdas, Faysal; Yildirim, Bilal; Batdi, Veli; Akpinar, Burhan
When the educational Technologies, which are used in the process of learning-teaching process, are associated with sensory organs, the least used one becomes the olfactive stimuli. Nowadays, because of being foreground of visual-audio Technologies, Positivism is based on vision and audition but it ignores the other senses. Although seeing and hearing play important roles, the ineffectiveness of other senses is delusion in this process. In this delusion the impact of visual-audio Technologic devices from telescope to television, internet, mobile phones is inevitable. However sensation and learning is wholistic and based on togetherness of five senses. Thus, with the delusion olfactive stimulus which is rejected from the educational field is effective on senses, attention, concentration and memory in learning. The purpose of this study, which is in form literature review, is to discuss the nature of olfactive stimulus the effectiveness in education, areas of usage in context of educational technology, to deduce and to make suggestions.

An Analysis of the Section on Causality in Khojazada's Tahafut
(SCIENTIFIC STUDIES ASSOC-ILMI ETUDLER DERNEGI-ILEM, 2016) Kılıç, Muhammet Fatih
In this article, the nineteenth section of Khojazada's (d. 893/1488) Tahafut, which was devoted to the problem of causality in an example of the works under the same title written during the fifteenth century and composed with the patronage of the Ottoman sultan Mehmed II (d. 886/1481), is subjected to a critical analysis. His discussion follows a critical course with respect to al-Ghazali (d. 505/1111) in context. This could be detected most clearly in his vindication of Avicenna (d. 428/1037) against al-Ghazali's accusation of the philosophers' denial of miracles. Moreover, Khojazada's discussion has certain differences with al-Ghazali's at both the conceptual and the argumentative levels. The most striking differences at the argumentative level is Khojazada's grounding of his own conception of revelation and miracles on Avicennia's, rather than al-Ghazali's, theory of prophethood. By the same token, he offered a practical response to the imputation that the Avicennian system leaves no room for the possibility of miracles. At the conceptual level, furthermore, he distinguished between complete and incomplete causes, in contradistinction with al-Ghazali, and thereby opened another ground in order to demonstrate the inability of those natures that he viewed as incomplete causes to produce their own effects. On the other hand, Khojazada concurs with al-Ghazali that causality did not presume an ontological necessity, yet this condition did not incur defects on the certainty of our knowledge.

Ancient DNA from Mesopotamia suggests distinct Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic migrations into Anatolia
(Science, 2022) Acar, Ayşe; Lazaridis, Iosif; Alpaslan-Roodenberg, Songül; Açıkkol, Ayşen; Agelarakis, Anagnostis; Davtyan, Ruben
We present the first ancient DNA data from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic of Mesopotamia (Southeastern Turkey and Northern Iraq), Cyprus, and the Northwestern Zagros, along with the first data from Neolithic Armenia. We show that these and neighboring populations were formed through admixture of pre-Neolithic sources related to Anatolian, Caucasus, and Levantine hunter-gatherers, forming a Neolithic continuum of ancestry mirroring the geography of West Asia. By analyzing Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic populations of Anatolia, we show that the former were derived from admixture between Mesopotamian-related and local Epipaleolithic-related sources, but the latter experienced additional Levantine-related gene flow, thus documenting at least two pulses of migration from the Fertile Crescent heartland to the early farmers of Anatolia.
Animal exploitation at the Olympos, southwestern Anatolia: Zooarchaeological analysis
(ScienceDirect, 2022) Onar, Vedat; Olcay-Uçkan, B. Yelda; Öztaşkin, Muradiye; Sıddıq, Abu Bakar; Öncü, Emre; Öztaşkin, Gökçen K.; Chrószcz, Aleksanderf
This study presents analysis of animal remains unearthed from 2006 to 2021 excavations at Olympos, an important city of ancient Lycia, southwestern Turkey. Seven faunal assemblages were unearthed from seven distinct areas of the city. Each of them was studied according to their distinct archaeological contexts. The zooarchaeological observation was based on taxonomic identification, species diversity, kill-off patterns, nature of bone modification, including taphonomic and anthropogenic marks, and type of species exploitation at the site. The results demonstrated that the majority of the specimens were consumption residues, comprising mainly of ungulate and carnivore mammals, birds and marine fish and mollusks. Goat remains were the most common in all the assemblages, which is consistent with common animal exploitation patterns in Anatolia. Fish bones mostly represented bonito (Sarda sarda), tuna (Thunnus thynnus) and shark (Carcharhinidae sp.). Among the mollusks, the shells of Triton trumpet, rarely found in the Roman-Byzantine Anatolia, were clearly used as trumpets. As Olympos was an important harbour with a strategic location by the Mediterranean Sea, its faunal remains shed new light on the coastal dietary habbit, animal economy, and cultural contacts in the Roman and Early Byzantine periods in Anatolia.

Animals and pastoral groups in the mountainous Ömerli district of Southeast Anatolia
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2020) Sıddıq, Abu Bakar; Şanlı, Süleyman
Southeast Anatolia has been an ideal place for pastoralism since the Neolithic period. However, there is a lack of information on human–animal relationships from both archaeological settlements and contemporary societies in the region. Through ethnographic fieldwork and exploratory case studies in the mountainous Ömerli district, we explored the dependency and complex relationships between pastoral groups and various animal species in Southeast Anatolia. The case studies revealed affectionate and emotional bonds between shepherds and some individuals of domestic herds, similar to pet–human relationships in urban societies. Shepherds gave human names to certain animals; sometimes these were the names of their close friends or the names of their own children. Grief and prolonged grief was also common among Ömerli shepherds following the loss, death, or sale of these emotionally bonded animals. It was further observed that a single species (domestic or wild) often had complex and multi-purpose relationships with shepherd groups. While tortoises and hares, for instance, were used as sources of meat, the bone, blood, intestine, skin, and shell of these species were often used in traditional medicine. Although pastoral groups are completely dependent on domestic herds for their basic subsistence, Ömerli shepherds were observed to be regular hunters. It appears that the economic benefits were not the only promoters for pastoral subsistence in the study area; compassion and emotional affection for particular animals also reinforced enthusiasm for the practice. Therefore, it can be argued that the data obtained from pastoral villages in the mountainous Ömerli district help us understand interactions and relationships between humans and nonhuman animals in pastoral societies of Southeast Anatolia.
The Approach of Kalām to the Physical Universe: Schools and Breaks
(Anadolu İlahiyat Akademisi, 2023) Cengiz, Yunus
Kelâmcılar, sekizinci yüzyılın sonlarından itibaren fiziksel evrenle daha fazla ilgilenmişler ve daha önce gündemlerinde olmayan cisim, hareket, durağanlık ve değişim gibi konularda teoriler ortaya koymuşlardır. Kelâm ekollerinin fizik yaklaşımları birbirlerinden farklı olduğu gibi farklı dönemlerdeki fizik hakkında düşünme tarzları da farklıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı kelâmcıların fiziksel evrene yaklaşımlarını tespit etmektir. Bu bağlamda, kelâmcıların beş farklı yaklaşımının olduğu söylenebilir. Bunlardan birincisi araz taraftarlarıdır. Evrenin arazlardan meydana geldiğini savunan bu yaklaşım cisimlerin bütünlüklü yapılar olarak görülmesinin zihnimizin eseri olduğunu savunur. İkincisi tabiatçı kelâmcılardır. Nazzâm, Câhız ve Sümâme bu yaklaşımı savunan kelâmcılardır. Onların ortak özelliği cisimlerin tabiatlarını kabul etmeleridir. Bu yaklaşıma göre cisimler başka bir müdahaleye gerek kalmaksızın tabiatlarına uygun bir şekilde davranmak zorundadır. Nazzâm, bu yaklaşıma uygun bir teori geliştirmiş ve teorisini tecrübelerle desteklemeye çalışmıştır. Atomculuğu reddeden Nazzâm cisimlerin karşıt bileşenlerden oluştuğunu ve onların sürekli hareket halinde olmalarını sağlayan iç dinamizme sahip olduklarını ısrarla söyler. Câhız ise hayvanların doğasını ve hareketlerini öğrenmek için çokça gözlem yapmanın yanı sıra birtakım deneyler yapmıştır. Kelâmın fizikle ilgili üçüncü yaklaşımın sahipleri ise atomcu kelâmcılardır. Atomculuk kelâmda en yaygın fizik yaklaşımıdır. Bu yaklaşıma göre cisimler sonsuza kadar bölünmez. Evren parçalanmayan parçacıklardan oluşur. Bu yaklaşım atomlar arasında boşlukların olduğunu ısrarla savunur. Bu düşüncelerini savunmak için birtakım örnekler veren atomcu kelâmcılar, cisimlerin tabiata sahip olduğunu kabul etmezler. Bunun yerine evreni açıklamak için itme gücü (i‘timâd) teorisini geliştirmişlerdir. Dördüncü yaklaşımın sahipleri ise hem atomcu hem tabiatçı kelâmcılardır. Ebu’l-Kâsım el-Ka‘bî’nin başını çektiği bu yaklaşım, evrenin atomlardan oluştuğunu ve her cismin bir tabiatının olduğunu savunur. Bu yaklaşım evrende boşluğun olmadığını söyler ve bu düşüncesini birçok tikel fenomeni izah ederek ispatlamaya çalışır. Beşinci yaklaşım ise Aristoteles’in dört neden nazariyesiyle fiziksel evreni değerlendiren kelâmcılardır. Gazâlî sonrasında Eş‘arî kelâmcılar, Aristoteles’in fiziğinin temelini teşkil eden dört neden nazariyesini kelâmî tezleriyle uyumlu hale getirmeye çalışmışlardır. Makalede bunu başarmak için ne tür yöntemlerin takip ettiği ele alınmaktadır.

Are Lesson Plans Created by ChatGPT More Effective? An Experimental Study
(INT SOC TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION, 2024) Karaman, Muhammet Remzi; Göksu, İdris
In this research, we aimed to determine whether students' math achievements improved using ChatGPT, one of the chatbot tools, to prepare lesson plans in primary school math courses. The research was conducted with a pretest-posttest control group experimental design. The study comprises 39 third-grade students (experimental group = 24, control group = 15). The implementation process lasted five weeks and 25 lesson hours. In the experimental group, lessons were taught according to plans prepared using ChatGPT, while in the control group, existing lesson plans were used. Students' academic achievement was measured with a multiple-choice achievement test of 25 questions with two separate questions for each learning objective. According to the results, students' academic achievement increased significantly (d = 1.268) in math lessons taught according to lesson plans prepared using the ChatGPT. Although there was a difference between the posttest scores of the experimental group and the control group in favor of the experimental group, it was determined that this difference was not significant. These results show that teaching primary school math according to lesson plans prepared using ChatGPT is effective in academic achievement. Teachers should consider ChatGPT and their plans, combining them and benefiting from both in the implementation process.
Âşık-Maşuk-Rakîb Bağlamında İsmet Özel Şiirinde Aşk
(İstanbul Üniversitesi Türk Dili ve Edebiyatı Bölümü, 2023) Yakut, Emrullah
Nefis, akıl ve aşk itici güçleri arasında şekillenen insanın varoluş macerası, yine insanın dilsel dışavurum ürünleri olan edebî metinlere ve özellikle şiire büyük ölçüde yansımıştır. Bu dışavurum, farklı edebî geleneklerde yüzeysel farklılıklara sahip olmakla birlikte ortak bazı yönleri de ihtiva etmektedir. Klasik şiirde âşık-mâşuk-rakîb üçlüsü arasında cereyan eden aşk temasının İsmet Özel şiirinde de benzer biçimlerde tezahür ettiği söylenebilir. Klasik şiirde mecâzî ve hakîkî aşk arasında çoğu zaman sınırları belirsizleştiren, ayrımları anlamsızlaştıran bir geçişkenlik vardır. Özel’in şiirinde ise ideolojik hedeflerle tensel arzuların iç içe geçtiği, bunlar arasında keskin geçişlerin yaşandığı bir aşk söz konusudur. Klasik şiirde aşk, insanın tekâmül sürecinin önemli bir vasıtasıdır. Benzer şekilde İsmet Özel için de aşk, insanı varoluş atılımına sürükleyen bir harekettir. Diğer yandan klasik şiirde âşık kendi benliğini adeta yok ederek (fenâ) maşuğa kavuşurken İsmet Özel’in şiirinde güçlü bir “Ben” vurgusu dikkat çekmektedir. Ancak bu Ben’in aynı zamanda bir maşuk olarak anlaşılmasına fırsat veren ipuçları, klasik şiirde ve tasavvuf düşüncesinde bilinen âşık-maşuk bütünlüğü çerçevesinde meseleyi daha ilginç bir boyuta taşımaktadır. Bu makale, klasik şiir ile İsmet Özel şiirindeki aşk anlayışını ve âşık, mâşuk, rakîb tezahürlerini mukayeseli bir şekilde ele almayı, benzerlikleri ve farklılıkları tespit ve tahlil etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.

Attitudes promoting coping with death anxiety among parents of children with disabilities
(Taylor and Francis Online, 2021) Kaçan, Havva; Sakız, Halis; Bayram Deger, Vasfiye
We investigated death anxiety among parents of children with disabilities and its associations with coping attitudes and psycho-demographic factors. Surveys were administered to 382 parents of children who possess a severe disability and data were analyzed via descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that parents experienced high levels of death anxiety; the level of death anxiety changed according to some psycho-demographic factors, such as external support, type of disability, and death-related beliefs; and death anxiety was significantly explained by demographic variables, death-related thoughts, and experiences, and adaptive and maladaptive coping attitudes.
BEAUTY AND ITS PROJECTION IN CHRISTIAN AND ISLAMIC TRADITION
(SPRINGER, 2011) Turker, Habip; Tymieniecka, AT
This essay deals with the conception of beauty and its manner of reflection in Christian and Islamic tradition concisely. Thus some influential thinkers in both traditions are chosen in order to exemplify the common conception of beauty. Christian tradition embraced Greek conception of beauty and art; however it brought a metaphysical depth to Greek conception of beauty in the hands of Christian thinkers. The conception of beauty in Islamic tradition was inspired by the religion and the Hellenistic heritage. However, the most elaborated theories on beauty in both Christian and Islamic tradition were done by mystic philosophers. In both traditions beauty is interpreted as something ontological. Accordingly, beauty is being, not a property added to it accidentally. However, the projections of this common conception of beauty differentiate from each other in some respects. While Christian art emphasizes divine intimacy and tragedy in naturalist perspective, Islamic art concentrates on the statement of the unity, transcendence, and eternity of God in stylized form. Yet, this essay does not overlook counter-examples and different artistic ages in the history.

Bodily Boundaries Transgressed: Corporal Alteration Through Ornamentation in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic at Boncuklu Tarla, Turkiye
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2024) Kodas, Ergul; Baysal, Emma L.; Ozkan, Kazim
Lack of contextual evidence for the use of small personal ornaments means that much of our understanding of ornamentation traditions within archaeological cultures is reconstructed from ethnographic comparisons. New in situ finds from the areas around the ears and mouth in burials at Boncuklu Tarla, a Neolithic settlement in Turkiye, add a novel dimension to the interpretation of stone 'tokens' or 'plugs'. This article presents a new typology for these artefacts and argues for their use as ear ornaments or labrets in a practice involving significant and lasting corporal alteration.

Byzantine Monastic Communities: Alternative Families?
(ASHGATE PUBLISHING LTD, 2013) Krausmüller, Dirk; Brubaker, L; Tougher, S
Byzantine monks addressed each other as fathers, sons or brothers, and monastic texts from the Middle Byzantine period are replete with terms and concepts that have the family as their original context. This chapter presents evidence for such spiritual' relationships within Byzantine monasteries and asks whether one can consider them as alternative families. It demonstrates that even after tonsure the relationship between spiritual fathers and their sons remained an important feature of monastic life. In late antiquity the lavra was only one of a range of social settings within which men could pursue a monastic lifestyle. The chapter then explores monastic rules from the late tenth and eleventh centuries, in order to assess whether this status quo underwent changes over time. It argues that the relationship between mentor and disciple reflects a broader culture of social networking, which shares important traits with the nuclear family but cannot be reduced to it.
