    Built environment and residential units as part of it have a significant role in terms of understanding cultural structure with its transformation in historical process through spatial aspects. While transformation of urban settlements presents information related to urban culture, settlements in rural sites provide narratives from different point of view in the same historical process. Differently from urban settlements that constructed independently of natural environment, rural sites that shaped by their nature present significant information with an approach considering their geographical formations and cultural landscape. It can be stated that, studies related to rural heritage which rise in importance across the world also started to increase in number in academy of Turkey. This study focuses on the geographies that studies of rural heritage and vernacular architecture as a component of it do not include. Selecting Ahkis village in Hizan district of Bitlis, Eastern Anatolia, the study evaluates the built environment and the settlement with its transformation in time and daily life practices. Because of the limited sources related to the territory, mostly with the information that provided through oral historical sources and interviews made during field survey, it is aimed to approach the site as a whole with its historical background. In addition to this, it is aimed to read the situation of being excluded which is not specific to Ahkis through historiography of vernacular architecture, designation process and representation of cultural heritage and affects of challenges incident to the territory in terms of literature studies.

    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.
