New evidence on the settlement history of Komana has become available as a result of the excavations conducted at Hamamtepe since 2009. In 2015 preliminary results, including information on the 17th-18th-century Ottoman village, 12th-early 14th-century Danishmend/Seljuk fortified settlement and 11th-12th-century Middle Byzantine churches with an associated graveyard, were published as an interdisciplinary monograph. Since then, the excavations have revealed evidence regarding earlier periods at the site. In this paper, this earlier evidence is presented with the hopes of a better understanding of Komana during the Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine periods.

Evaluation of protective structures in archaeological sites for in situ conservation of achitectural remains and artifacts Ertosun, Atiye Işıl; Özgönül, Nimet; Restoration in Department of Architecture (2012) Artifacts are moved to museums after the excavations in order to provide an indoor protection, while the immovable findings remain exposed to environmental conditions and human activity. In order to conserve these architectural remains made of vulnerable material, mosaics and wall paintings in situ, covering structures are designed offering temporary or long-term sheltering, preserving and exhibiting facilities. The aim of the study is to evaluate these protective structures. In this study, national and int...
Cumhuriyet’in İlk Otuz Yılında (1920-1950) Koruma Alanının Örgütlenmesi Madran, Emre (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 1996-1-01) Tüm uygarlıklar, kendilerinden önceki uygarlıklara ve onların ürünlerine ilgi duymuşlardır. Bu ilgi birçok nedenlere dayalı olup, bu ilgiye bağlı davranışlar da korumayı olumlu ya da olumsuz etkilemiştir. Bunun yanısıra, günümüzde 'kültür varlığı* olarak nitelendirdiğimiz, alan, yapı gurupları ve yapılar için her uygarlık, kendine özgü koruma programları düzenlemiş, bunun sonucu olarak bu değerlerin büyük bir bölümü günümüze kadar gelebilmiştir. Günümüzün koruma anlayışı, geçmişten bize kalan bu ürünlerin s...
Cumhuriyet’in İlk Otuz Yılında (1920-1950) Koruma Alanının Örgütlenmesi II Madran, Emre (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 1997-3-24) Artefacts of earlier civilizations have always been of interest and they have been detected, documented, and subjected to preservation activities, and thus, some have continued their existence. The nature of this interest and attitudes towards artefacts are variable in time according to social and cultural conditions. This research aims to examine the attitudes, legal and fiscal aspects, and institutions related with 'historical properties' and 'preservation' in Turkey, between 1920- 1950.
Examinations on technological characteristics of mudbased construction materials in Ulucak Hoyuk neolithic settlement Erol, Fatıma; Tavukçuoğlu, Ayşe; Department of Archaeometry (2019) The main concern of the study is the definition of mud-based materials technologies belonging to Ulucak Höyük (İzmir) Neolithic settlement (Vth level:6400-6000 BC and IVth level: 5990-5660 BC). Representative samples were collected from the eight different mud masonry houses that were unburnt, partially and fully burnt mudbricks, interior/exterior mud plasters, and floor covering mud mortars. Their laboratory tests were based on raw materials analyses composed of compositional properties of mud mixtures and...
Environmental Archaeology: What Is in a Name? Pişkin, Evangelia (2014-09-14) Despite its long history, environmental archaeology today still remains beyond the unambiguous classification. This broad, capacious term is some kind of label or banner, under which different researchers undertake their studies. Definitions of it vary significantly from being a list of encompassing subdisciplines, a set of analytical techniques within archaeological science, a discipline between two realms that of science and the other of humanities concerned with the reconstruction of past environment and...
