    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Yönetken, Elif Ece; Hamamcıoğlu Turan, Mine; Turan, Mine; 02.01. Department of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This study was conducted to evaluate conservation activities regarding conservation council decisions in a middle sized, but touristic historic city on western coast of Turkey. The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of the current conservation plan and conservation council decisions on the immovable cultural assets in listed urban site of Kuşadası. The methodology includes literature research, archive research in Conservation Council, Pious Foundations and Kuşadası Municipality, site survey comprehending base map correction and photographic documentation; visual analysis, historical research and comparative study, and evaluation of conservation activities with reference to concepts of authenticity and integrity. It is evaluated that there are conservation problems originated from inappropriate conservation implementations ignoring the concept of authenticity and integrity of immovable cultural assets. There is also terminologic confusion in some conservation council decisions. Majority of the conservation implementations have focused on single building scale. Unlicensed constructions stemming from insufficient control of the Municipality in the historic urban environment and lack of implementation of the conservation plan in terms of removal of inharmonious buildings and masses are significant in terms of their negative impact on integrity of the urban layout. Preparation of a management plan, revision of the conservation plan, which dates to 1994, and determination in their application are considered as indispensible for sustaining of authenticity and integrity.

    Understanding Gölde (i̇ncesu) With Its Tangible and Intangible Characteristics
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Eken, Esra; Kul Özdemir, Fatma Nurşen; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    International conservation agenda focuses on the significance of understanding rural heritage with a holistic approach considering both tangible and intangible aspects. However, tangible aspects are still the main concern of legal documents as well as academic discussions in Turkey. Thus, most of rural heritage sites are either demolished or lost its authentic characteristics without being understood and documented inclusively. This study aims a holistic understanding of Gölde (İncesu) rural settlement within the border of Kula where Muslim Turkish and Orthodox Rum communities lived together until the beginning of the 20th century. Considering the aim of the study; both tangible and intangible characteristics of Gölde are deciphered by using different information sources; observation and analysis of the physical environment for tangible, and narratives of the present Muslim and past Orthodox Rum inhabitants for intangible. Thus; continuing, changed and lost values of Gölde could be evaluated. The results of the study made it clear that analysis of the sole physical environment in not enough to understand a place with all its dimensions. Intangible characteristics that shaped and/or performed in this physical environment should be also understood.
