    İzmir'in bir dağ köyü: Yamanlar ve Yamanlar Yörükleri üzerine etnotarihsel bir inceleme
    (Rector CIU Cyprus int Univ, 2023) Ustuk, Ozan
    This study examines the history, language, social, and economic transformation of the Yuruks living in the Yamanlar Village located in the Karsiyaka district, where there is relatively little information in the literature despite its proximity to the Izmir city center. Information collected from the Ottoman Era cemetery adjoining the village reveals that the Yamanlar Yuruks have lived here for at least 400 years. Mount Yamanlar, where the village is located, is of great importance because of its ancient history, as it witnessed the founding of Izmir (Smyrna). The social and economic lifestyle in the village has transformed as the city expanded toward residential areas atop Mount Yamanlar. The loss of traditional livelihood practices challenged the villagers and severely influenced their customs, which might be considered valuable pieces of cultural heritage. In this study, we conducted fieldwork, during which various data collection methods and techniques were employed to describe daily life in the village. Within the scope of this study, semi-structured and unstructured interviews were conducted with the local people, and an oral historical study was carried out. With this method, we aimed to present an ethnohistorical description of the Yamanlar Village by trying to establish a balance between the analysis of both written documents and oral data to make sense of the social and economic change it has undergone and to contribute to the literature on Izmir Yuruks.

    (Ege Univ, 2011) Aditatar, Funda
    From 1825 up to the late nineteenth century the British Levant Consular Service developed highly parallel with the policy of Britain in the Ottoman Empire. During the protection policy of the Ottoman territory which continued until the 1870s, political and commercial aspects of consular services has been formulated almost an equal level. Instead of protecting the territorial integrity of the Empire after the Berlin Treaty of 1878 turned into a controlled sharing and consuls began press to served heavily political direction. The aim of this paper is to evaluate reports of Izmir British Consulate about military intelligence. The voluminous reports of the consulate related with the military intelligence. This situation occurs in Izmir because of commercial importance and strategic location, and also riots and wars all of these can be explained in the intensive military mobility during the last period of the Empire (1878-1914).
