    Gizemli yeraltı dünyası: Derinkuyu Yeraltı Şehri’nin önemi ve gördüğü değer
    (Bilkent University, 2020) Cezayir, Ahmed Salih; Erarslanoğlu, Burcu; Erdem, Emir Melih; Göçmen, İsmail Sergen; Kurtoğlu, Kaan
    Bu makalede, Kapadokya bölgesinde bulunan ve tarihi milattan önceye uzanan Derinkuyu Yeraltı Şehri ele alınmıştır. Yapının, tarih boyunca birçok medeniyet tarafından kullanılışı ve dikkat çeken mimarisinin anlatılması üzerinden tarihsel ve kültürel değeri vurgulanmıştır. Yeraltı Şehri’nin bu değeri göz önünde bulundurulduğunda 1965’teki müzeleştirilmesinden beri bu yapıya halk, araştırmacılar ve devlet tarafından verilen önem değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular ışığında, bu tarihî mirasın araştırmacıların ve medyanın gözündeki değeri yüksekken yerel halkın ve devletin yapıya gösterdiği ilgi kısmen yetersiz bulunmuştur.

    Investigation of a tuff stone church in Cappadocia via acoustical reconstruction
    (MDPI, 2022-05-16) Adeeb, Ali Haider; Gül, Zühre Sü
    This study investigates the indoor acoustical characteristics of a Middle Byzantine masonry church in Cappadocia. The Bell Church is in partial ruins; therefore, archival data and the church’s remains are used for its acoustical reconstruction. The study aims to formulate a methodology for a realistic simulation of the church by testing the applicability of different approaches, including field and laboratory tests. By conducting qualitative and quantitative material tests, different tuff stone samples are examined from the region. Impedance tube tests are performed on the samples from Göreme and Ürgüp to document their sound absorption performances. Previous field tests on two sites in Cappadocia are also used to compare the sound absorption performance of tuff stones, supported by acoustical simulations. The texture, physical and chemical characteristics of the stones together with the measured sound absorption coefficient values are comparatively evaluated for selecting the most suitable material to be applied in the Bell Church simulations. The church was constructed in phases and underwent architectural modifications and additions over time. The indoor acoustical environment of the church is analyzed over objective acoustical parameters of EDT, T30, C50, C80, D50, and STI for its different phases with different architectural features and functional patterns. © 2022 by the authors.

    The land of beautiful horses : stables in middle Byzantine settlements of Cappadocia
    (2008) Tütüncü, Filiz
    The present work is a study on horses and horse breeding in Middle Byzantine Cappadocia with special attention being paid to the architectural evidence, namely, the stables. The major aim here is to test the hypothesis that the landowner magnates living in monumental rock-cut mansions bred horses in their large stables to supply their own troops, as well as those of the imperial army. In order to evaluate this further, this thesis investigates the stables of the elite mansions in three settlements, Açık Saray, Çanlı Kilise, and Selime-Yaprakhisar. The architecture of the stables is discussed along with their possible functions and meanings. Architectural data is supplemented by literary evidence on horses and horse breeding in the Byzantine world.
