    Manisa, Göktaşlı Cami'nin Güncel Koruma Durumunun Değerlendirilmesi
    (2017) Hamamcıoğlu Turan, Mine; Büyükkılıç Koşun, Suna
    Bu çalışmanın amacı restorasyonu henüz tamamlanmış, vakıf kökenli bir anıtın mevcut koruma durumunu, korumadeğer-müdahale ilişkileri çerçevesinde değerlendirmek ve gelecekteki uygulamalara yön verecek ilkeler ortaya koymaktır. 1630-31'e tarihlenen Manisa, Göktaşlı Cami çalışma konusu olarak seçilmiştir. Müdahalelerle ilgili kavramlar üzerine literatür taraması; çalışma konusu olan cami ile ilgili literatür ve arşiv araştırması; benzer yapılarla karşılaştırmalı çalışma ve arazi çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Anıtta ve yakın çevresinde, yaşam döngüsü içinde birikmiş değerler tanımlanmakta ve bunlara mevcut imar planı/proje kararlarının etkisi ve karşı karşıya kaldıkları müdahaleler teker teker değerlendirilmektedir.

    Integration of Archaeological Heritage in Metropolitan City Centres With Urban Life: Agora of Smyrna
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Çalışkan, Merve; Hamamcıoğlu Turan, Mine
    Archaeological sites located in metropolitan city centres in Turkey are subjected to diverse interventions. However, they are mostly isolated from the rest of the historical environment and become alienated from urban life. The aim is to identify an integration framework for archaeological sites in metropolitan city centres with contemporary urban life. A case study approach is employed, focusing on the Agora of Smyrna in İzmir, Turkey. Literature review on the case and similar cases, analysis of similar cases, literature review on integration criteria, survey, and a Delphi study to understand expert opinion were carried out. As a result, improving the quality of urban life and the good reputation of Agora’s vicinity, and the presentation, management, and usage of Agora itself support its integration. Nevertheless, the ‘presence of public concern for the conservation of the site’ is still the most important for the integration of the Agora with urban life.

    Hellenistic Masonry Techniques in Southern and Western Anatolia
    (Elsevier, 2022) Gençer, Funda; Hamamcıoğlu Turan, Mine
    Various Hellenistic masonry wall classifications have been given for Egypt, Greece, Persia, Phoenicia, Anatolia, etc., in literature. However, it is hardly possible to classify all masonry types in Anatolia because it varies regionally and has unique qualities. An important subject of research is what causes this diversity. Thus, this study aims to identify the original wall configurations and facings as well as the factors that define these structures by examining the undocumented walls in Anatolia's western and southern regions. Anatolian-specific composite techniques will be deciphered. The masonry techniques used in the walls of Caria, Lycia, and Pamphylia Regions, which are rich in examples of Hellenistic city walls, in the Western and Southern coasts of Asia Minor are compared in terms of their arrangement of blocks, wall profiles, and finishing of the faces. The first step of the method is a literature survey for determining the distribution of Hellenistic masonry walls in Anatolia. This was followed by a preliminary site survey. The dry-joint masonry walls that have sustained their authenticity and remain that have traces of their original composition were selected for accurate examination. Walls in Latmos, Alinda, Alabanda, Tekekale, Myndos in Caria; Sillyum, Side, and Perge in Pamphylia; and Oenoando and Isium in Lycia were examined. Their construction techniques and material usage were determined with the measured survey, visual analysis, and laboratory analysis. Also, the documented masonry patterns were compared with the masonry arrangements in different geographies of the world. Consequently, this study demonstrates that different masonry arrangements emerged in Anatolia as a result of varieties in the local environment. There are unique composite examples of integrating polygonal and ashlar leaves with headers and squat blocks in Anatolia.

    A Quantitative Approach for Evaluating Intervention-Value Relations: Historic Mosques of Manisa, Turkey
    (Emerald Group Publishing, 2021) Büyükkılıç Koşun, Suna; Hamamcıoğlu Turan, Mine
    Purpose This study aims to propose a systematic way of evaluating the impact of historic and current interventions on cultural asset values of monuments that have preserved their authentic functions so that future interventions can be better guided. Design/methodology/approach The study focuses on the Mosque typology. The case studies are chosen from a region that has a rich historic background, but has generally undergone rapid urbanization and faces extensive restorations today. Conventional site survey, archive and historical research and visual analysis are made, but the evaluation process has been designed. As a result, scale and intensity of interventions and disasters and the vulnerability of the monument should be identified for each period of the asset. Variations in the intensity of esthetic or historic qualities and the environmental settings should be credited, rather than the utilitarian necessities. Findings Mosques and their environs are most vulnerable in terms of their architectural authenticity and site aesthetics. Originality/value The objects studied in the previous studies present a variation, but the majority of the work is carried out with conventional evaluation methods with the emphasis on building scale. However, the mosques are affected by the interventions and disasters, not only as single architectural entities but also as the focal elements of their neighborhoods. So, the intervention-value relations should be understood both for building and site scales. An evaluation process is proposed for understanding the change of values with respect to interventions and disasters throughout history by combining qualitative and quantitative techniques.
