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.
Exile, resistance and deportation: Circassian opposition to the Kemalists in the South Marmara in 1922–1923
(Middle Eastern Studies, 2018) Yelbaşı, Caner
After the Ankara government’s victory in the Turkish-Greek War of 1919-1922, Ankara turned its attention to the punishment of those domestic groups known to oppose it. The anti-Kemalist Circassians, Çerkes Ethem, Kuşçubaşı Eşref, were of particular concern to Ankara, due to their activities against it. The Ankara government’s alarm over the activities of anti-nationalists was heightened. Therefore, to gain control of the region Ankara employed very harsh policies against its opponents. It took the decision to exile fourteen Circassian villages in the Gönen-Manyas area to central and eastern parts of Turkey to secure the region. By using the British Foreign Office records, The Prime Ministry Ottoman and Republican Archives (BOA,BCA), Turkish Military Archive (ATASE), TİTE, Ankara University, History of Turkish Revolution Institute Archive this article argues that the tense Turkish-Greek War in Western Anatolia (1919-1922) convinced Ankara that it would be nearly impossible for it to control the region, and thus it sought extremely harsh methods to deal with the Circassians. As a result of this overreaction, and the associated collective punishment, many women, children and innocent people in the region became victims.

From ‘brothers in religion’ to ‘bandits’: Chechens in Mardin in the late Ottoman period
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2021) Yelbaşı, Caner; Akman, Ekrem
This article analyses the mass migration of Chechens to the Ottoman Empire between the mid-1860s and the 1900s. The Russian expansion to the North Caucasus transformed the entire region surrounding the Black Sea, including its demography, governance and politics. This expansion took place in several phases. The first resulted in a major mass migration by several North Caucasian groups, who abandoned the region in response to the increasing presence of Russian military personnel. During the second stage, the exodus of these groups accelerated because of massacres committed by the Russian military in an attempt to take complete control. Many North Caucasians were exiled to Ottoman lands, arriving en masse, either on foot, or by sailing across the Black Sea. This article argues that the Ottoman state lacked a well-functioning settlement policy regarding the incoming North Caucasians. The Ottomans aimed to accommodate the refugees by deploying the frame of viewing them as ‘brothers in religion‘, but this resulted in a number of issues, in particular due to existing problems concerning the ‘state's Tanzimat‘ order, along with the collection of taxes and conflict with Bedouin tribes in the Mardin region. This article examines this phenomenon by means of a study of the ‘Chechens' journey‘ to the Ottoman Empire, focusing specifically on a subgroup of Chechens, who were settled in the Mardin region. Through the use of a considerable array of archival resources, the article seeks to firstly, trace the route taken by the Chechen group to Mardin and secondly, to clarify their transformation from being considered ‘brothers in religion’ by the Ottomans to regional bandits.

The Investigation of the Relations Between Paternalistic Leadership, Organizational Creativity and Organizational Dissent
(Research in Educational Administration and Leadership, 2021) Ağalday, Bünyamin; Dağlı, Abidin
The research aims to determine the relationship between public primary school principals' paternalistic leadership behaviours and teachers' organizational creativity and organizational dissent perception levels according to primary school teachers' perceptions. A quantitative correlational design was utilized in the research. The research sample consists of 1059 public primary schoolteachers selected by stratified sampling method in Mardin city center and eight districts of Mardin during the 2016-2017 academic year. The data of the research were obtained by using the "Headmasters' Paternalistic Leadership Behaviours Scale," "Organizational Creativity Scale," and "Organizational Dissent Scale. "The data analysis revealed the following findings: There was a positive and significant correlation between the paternalistic leadership behaviours of primary school administrators and teachers' perceptions toward organizational creativity and organizational dissent. Also, paternalistic leadership behaviours of primary school administrators were found to be a significant predictor of teachers' perceptions toward organizational creativity and organizational dissent. The principals should exhibit benevolent leadership behaviours that enhance the teachers' organizational creativity perceptions, such as endeavouring to create a family milieu in school, being tolerant of teachers, and supporting teachers to take the initiative.
Khorsabad/dūr-šarrukin Kazısı ve Asar-ı Atika\rMizamnamelerine Etkisi
(Istanbul Univ, 2021) Genc, Bulent
When Paolo Emilio Botta was appointed to Mosul as the French consul in the last quarter of the 19th century, significant developments in Mesopotamian archeology occurred. During Botta's studies in the Mosul area, a resident of the village of Khorsabad mentioned reliefs and inscriptions on top of a hill. Botta dispatched a group of workmen to Khorsabad on March 20, 1843, after three months of arduous work in Kuyunjik. However, problems began to arise shortly after his work in Mosul. Particularly Mehmed Pasha in the province creates various obstacles. In this context, we searched the Ottoman Archives to learn more about Botta's excavation permits and documents, the obstacles created by the Pasha of Mosul, and the details, background, and correspondence of Botta's story in Khorsabad. We came across many documents, which included details as to the problems Botta experienced in Khorsabad, the conditions about the excavation permit and the construction of the excavation house, the plan of the excavation house mentioned by Botta, which was shown to be like a castle next to the village houses and sent to Istanbul, and the petitions of the villagers against Botta's research and the excavation house. In this article, we tried to understand how this period was understood and handled by re-reading Botta's excavation periods, permit documents, and the problems he encountered through the available documents. In particular, in the context of Khorsabad, we reviewed the excavation permission and articles given to Botta and examined its contribution to the Asar-i Atika Regulations.

A new discovery of Neanderthal settlements in Turkey: Sürmecik open-air campsite in Western Anatolia
(2021) Taşkıran Harun, Aydın Yavuz, Özçelik Kadriye, Erbil Eşref
Western Anatolia is the poorest region in terms of Turkey’s Palaeolithic finds. In the past years, only a few Palaeolithic artefacts were known from the surface in the provinces of İzmir, Manisa, Kütahya and Afyonkarahisar in western Anatolia. After the fossil Homo erectus skull fragment was found in the travertine deposits in Kocabaş (Denizli) in 2002, the importance of the region more increased. After this important discovery, Dr. Kadriye Özçelik started a Palaeolithic survey in Denizli and found a large number of chipped stone tools from the Lower and Middle Palaeolithic periods. Nevertheless, the last important Palaeolithic discovery in the region was made in Sürmecik (Banaz-Uşak) in 2015. This is an open-air campsite belonging to the Middle Palaeolithic period. Here is also a mining area where a mining operation is conducted. The chipped stone artefacts of the Sürmecik Palaeolithic open-air campsite come from a clay layer between hematite and limonite deposits under a travertine layer of about 4.5–5 meters in thickness. Faunal remains represent mostly by equids species. All stages of Mousterian culture are clearly visible in this open-air campsite. Su¨rmecik is the richest middle Palaeolithic open-air campsite in Turkey. The 83,002 lithic pieces were collected in the excavations carried out in 2016 and 2017. It is thought that the lithic assemblage will exceed 100,000 with the ongoing studies. The group of bifacial leaf points in this collection is seen in Turkey for the first time. Four master thesis studies started on the lithic material of Sürmecik. It is planned to take some samples for dating analysis along with ongoing studies.

Offense Narrative Roles of Turkish Offenders
(International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology, 2021) Zeyrek-Rios, Emek Yüce; Canter, David V.; Youngs, Donna
The study of offense narratives emphasizes the agency of the offender which brings psychology closer to law. As an effort to create a standardized and quantitative method to evaluate offender narratives, Youngs and Canter developed the Narrative Roles Questionnaire (NRQ) based on the content analyses of the crime narratives of offenders in UK prisons. The current study aims to investigate the applicability of offense narrative roles framework among Turkish offenders. The application of the offense narrative roles model to a non-Western country is the first step toward the acceptance of criminal narrative theory as a universal explanation of criminal behavior. A translation of the NRQ was administered to 468 Turkish male inmates who have committed a wide range of offenses from fraud to murder. The results of an MDS analysis yielded four roles, namely Professional, Revenger, Hero, and Victim, echoing the original formulation proposed by Youngs and Canter. The reliability coefficients of scales derived for these roles were all at desired levels. The results support the applicability of the NRQ framework in a non-English context.

Positive versus negative contact and refugees' intentions to migrate: The mediating role of perceived discrimination, life satisfaction and identification with the host society among Syrian refugees in Turkey
(Journal of Community and Applied Social Psychology, 2021) Ergün, Naif; Özkan, Zafer; Çakal, Hüseyin
Most research on refugee integration focuses on attitudes toward refugees among the members of the host society. Consequently, little is known on refugees' intentions to return home or migrate to another country. The present research investigates whether positive and negative contact with Turks are related to Syrian refugees' migration decisions via perceived discrimination, identification with the host society, and life satisfaction. Using a sample of Syrian adults (N = 285), we found that positive contact with Turks was associated with reduced return intentions via perceived discrimination and identification with the host society and with reduced intentions to migrate from Turkey to the Western countries via life satisfaction. Negative contact was only associated with increased return intentions via perceived discrimination. This study underscores the role of intergroup contact to better understand migration decisions of refugees and potential underlying mechanisms to explain this association.

Self-esteem and perceived social competence protect adolescent students against ostracism and loneliness
(Journal of Psychologists and Counsellors in Schools, 2021) Sakız, Halis; Mert, Abdullah; Sarıçam, Hakan
The purpose of this research was to examine the associations between self-esteem, perceived social competence, ostracism and loneliness among adolescent students. For the investigation of self-esteem and perceived social competence as key developmental constructs concerning negative experiences such as ostracism and loneliness, it is important to understand the experiences that may inhibit individual development in adolescence. Participants were 542 presecondary and secondary school students who completed the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Perceived Social Competence Scale, the Ostracism Experience Scale for Adolescents, and the Loneliness Scale for Children. The data were analysed with Pearson moments correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. Findings showed that: (1) self-esteem, perceived social competence, ostracism and loneliness were related to each other; (2) self-esteem and perceived social competence were negatively related to ostracism and loneliness; (3) ostracism had a positive relationship with loneliness and a negative impact on self-esteem; and (4) an increase in the level of perceived social competence predicted a decrease in the levels of ostracism and loneliness. The results were discussed in the light of relevant literature.

Van Kalesi Analıkız Yapısı: İşlev ve Kronolojisine Dair Bir Değerlendirme.
(İstanbul Üniversitesi Yayınevi, 2019) Genç, Bülent; Konyar, Erkan
Özet: Van Kalesi'nin kuzeydoğu yamaçlarında, ova düzeyine yakın bir yükseltide Analıkız veya Hazine Kapısı olarak adlandırılan kaya anıtı yer almaktadır. Anıt ana kayaya işlenmiş bir platform ve gerisinde yine ana kayaya açılmış iki adet anıtsal nişten oluşur. Marr ve Orbeli'nin 1916 yılında gerçekleştirdikleri kazılardan bu yana Analıkız alanının işlevi, sitadelle ilişkisi, krallık açısından önemi, inşa evreleri ve mimari tasarımı hakkında ayrıntılı bir değerlendirme yapılmamıştır. Literatürde bu alan genel olarak Açık Hava Kutsal Alanı olarak tanımlanmıştır. Lehmann-Haup'tun 1898'lerde alanın kuzeyinde yer alan drenaj kanallarını kurban kanalı olarak tanımlaması açık hava kutsal alanı tanımını yerleştirmiş ve sonraki çalışmalara referans olmuştur. Bu makalede alanla ilgili literatür ve hikayeleri ve kazı sonuçları tekrar değerlendirilerek yeniden tanımlanmaya çalışılmıştır. Minua ile başlamış olması muhtemel inşa faaliyetlerinin I. Argişti ve II. Sarduri ile devam ettiği yönündeki tespitler, bu alanın yapım evreleri de göz önüne alınarak değerlendirilmiştir. Analıkız yapısının aslında açık hava kutsal alanı olmayabileceği, krallık için sadece başkente özel ünik bir anıtsal birim olabileceği ele alınmıştır. Söz konusu birimin kralların kroniklerinin yazılı olduğu stellerinin toplu olarak bulunduğu bir alan olabileceği ve bütün çevresel özellikleriyle beraber kapalı bir alan olabileceği arkeolojik ve filolojik kanıtlar üzerinden tartışılmıştır. Abstract: On the northeast sides of the Van Fortress, an elevation nearby, stands a rock monument on the plain named Analıkız or also called Hazine Kapısı. The monument consists of a platform engraved into the rock and two monumental niches. Yet ever since the excavations conducted by Marr and Orbeli in 1916, there have been no detailed examinations or evaluations of the functions of the field, the relationship to the citadel, its importance for the kingdom, the levels of construction or architectural design. In literature, this field is generally recognized as Open Air Sanctuary or the way Lehmann-Haupt defined in 1898. In this study, we attempted to reevaluate and redefine the literature, stories and excavation outcomes. The deductions suggesting construction activities initiating with Minua then continuing with Argishti I and Sarduri II have been made considering the construction levels of the field. The possibilities of Analıkız structure not being an open-air sanctuary but rather a monumental site for the kingdom, a field in which the steles with king’s chronicles carved onto them are gathered or a closed field with all of its surroundings have been discussed with the aid of archeological and philological proofs.

Yukarı Dicle Vadisi’nde Bulunan Sere Şippe Höyük üzerine ilk Gözlemler (Dargeçit/Mardin/Türkiye)
(Anadolu Arastirmalari, 2022) Kodaş, Ergül
2019 yılında tespit edilen Sere Şippe Höyük Mardin İli Dargeçit ilçesi Temelli Mahallesi sınırları içerisinde bulunmaktadır. Dicle Nehir yatağının yaklaşık 1500 m kuzey-batısında bulunan yerleşim yerinde, Ilısu Barajı ve HES Projesi kapsamında kazılar yapmakta olan Boncuklu Tarla kazı ekibi tarafından 2019 yılında yapılan yüzey araştırmasında çanak çömlek, yontmataş, sürtme taş, kemik alet ve parçaları ile süs eşyaları toplanarak koruma altına alınmıştır. Sere Şippe Höyük yerleşim yerinde toplanan yontmataş aletler, çanak-çömlek parçaları ve diğer buluntular yerleşimin hem Çanak-Çömleksiz Neolitik Dönem’de hem de Çanak-Çömlekli Neolitik Dönem’in başlarında iskan gördüğünü düşündürmektedir. Bilhassa bulunan çanak-çömlek parçaları Proto Hassuna çanak-çömlek geleneğine aittir ve höyüğün Çanak-Çömlekli Neolitik Dönem’in başlarında iskan gördüğüne işaret etmektedir. Ayrıca mikrolit aletlerin ve oluklu taş objelerin varlığı höyüğün Çanak-Çömleksiz Neolitik Dönem’de de iskan görmüş olabileceğini de düşündürmektedir. Höyükte toplanan parçalar arasında Halaf Dönemi çanak-çömlek parçaları ve yerleşim yerinin yakınlarında bulunan çakmaktaşı yatakları üzerinde Paleolitik Çağ’a ait aletler de bulunmaktadır.
