The mosque with wooden minaret, porch and hip roof, represents the authentic building type which had been built on a large number through four centuries of the Ottoman period in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1463-1878). These structures were constructed using locally available materials and construction techniques, all done by domestic builders. Sometimes numerous, small neighbourhood (mahalle) mosques constantly decay and disappear in last hundred years, as a result of incompetent appraisal and maintenance, violent or deliberate demolition, and also unacceptable intentions to build a new, larger and more modern mosque in place of an old one. This study aims to analyse four small neighbourhood mosques in the Tuzla region, dating back to the 16th and early 17th century, in terms of the authenticity of form, method of construction, similarity and differences with other matching examples in Bosnia, as well as problems and possibilities of their restoration, today's use and proper maintenance. Dzindijska and Mejdanska mosque in Tuzla town, Atik mosque in Cive, and Dzebarska mosque, belong to a single space type with a two-story porch, both under the wooden pitched roof with integrated wooden minaret. After being worn out and with an altered look, the restoration works had given them back previous, more authentic form. As a valuable symbol of the cultural identity and continuity, this autochthonous mosque type can be preserved with sustainable methods and principles of the restoration, with due respect of the contemporary context, values and users' needs.

GEOLOGICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL INVESTIGATION OF REUSED ROCK COLUMNS IN THE GREAT MOSQUE IN DIYARBAKIR OLD CITY (TURKEY)
KAVAK, ORHAN; DALKILIÇ, NESLİHAN; Toprak, V. (2011-01-01)
Cylindrical rock columns in the Great Mosque in Diyarbakir Old City are investigated for their lithology and architecture. The columns belong to four different rock types, namely pre-Tertiary meta-ophiolites, Eocene limestones, Miocene limestones and Plio-Quaternary basalts. The columns from the first three lithologies are reused during the construction and/or renovation of the Great Mosque. Thin sections prepared from 18 columns of this building confirm they are derived from the rocks exposed in the region...
Konya Alaeddin Camisi Yapım Evreleri Üzerine Düşünceler
Asutay Effenberger, Neslihan (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2006)
The Alaeddin Mosque, which is located on a hill in the middle of modern Konya, is one of the most problematical monuments of the Seljuk Anatolia. It has suffered from several restorations and almost lost of its original substance. Its irregular prayer hall shows the following parts (from east to west): a hypostyle hall, a central unit with a mihrap cupola and a western wing. An U-shaped courtyard, where two kümbets are situated, is positioned in the north side of the prayer hall. In addition, some wall frag...
Historical background of Libyan mosque architecture: assesment and criticism of mosquesin Ajdabiya city
Buhlfaia, Saeid; Cengizkan, Ali; Department of Architecture (2006)
The study attempts to trace the development of mosque architecture in Islamic history, in modern architecture in the world, specifically focusing on the history of the mosque in Libya. It investigates whether the conformity of mosque components and finishing is due to historic, current and local Islamic prescriptions; due to functional purposes and necessities, or merely as an imitation of the stereotype styles for loyalty to mental and habitual traditions regardless of functions. The main objective of this...
THE ICONOSTASIS IN THE REPUBLICAN MOSQUE: TRANSFORMED RELIGIOUS SITES AS ARTIFACTS OF INTERSECTING RELIGIOSCAPES
Tanyeri Erdemir, Tuğba; Hayden, Robert M.; Erdemir, Aykan (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2014-08-01)
In this paper we focus on the Republican Mosque in Derinkuyu, Turkey, a Greek Orthodox church built in 1859 and transformed into a mosque in 1949 that still exhibits many obviously Christian structural features not found in most such converted churches. We utilize the concept of religioscape, defined as the distribution in spaces through time of the physical manifestations of specific religious traditions and of the populations that build them, to analyze the historical transformations of the building, and ...
