ANKARA, KIZILCAHAMAM YAKININDAKİ GÜVEM KÖYÜ CİVARINDA BULUNAN SON TERSİYER KOZALAKLI-YEŞİL YAPRAKLI ORMANI

Year 1977, Volume: 88 Issue: 88, 94 - 102, 01.05.1977

Abstract

Bugünkü kozalaklı-yeşil yapraklı ormanı ve ünlü sıcak su kaynaklarını görmek için ilk
defa 1939 da Orman Fakültesinden arkadaşım Karamanoğlu ile birlikte Kızılcahamam'a gittim.
Ankara'dan Kurtboğazı'na kadar tozlu eski yoldaki uzun otobüs yolculuğunu ve Kargasekmez'in
tehlikeli virajlarını hatırlıyorum. O zaman Kâmil'in babası Yargıç Muavini Remzi Bey beni davet
edip, eski Osmanlı tarzı mimarî ile yapılmış üç katlı Ankara tipi ahşap evlerinde kalmamı istemişti.
Her gün yürüyüşe çıkıyor ve vadilerdeki köknar, kavak ve meşe ağaçlarının da yer aldığı
çam ormanları ile sıcak su kaynakları ve yayvan yamaçlarda araştırmalar yapıyorduk. Otuz yıl
sonra 1968 de eski meslektaşlarım Sayın H. Aksoy, Prof. K. Karamanoğlu, Prof. N. Sönmez ve
Prof. O. Düzgüneş ve ailelerinin bir pikniğe davet etmeleri üzerine Kızılcahamam'a tekrar gittim.
Kızılcahamam'ın 22 km kuzeyine gittikten sonra Çerkeş yolundan Güvem'i geçtik ve
Beşkonak'a geldik, piknik yeri olarak su kenarında sakin bir çimenliği seçtik. Yol kenarları buldozerlerle
kesildikten sonra da Kızılcahamam-Çerkeş yolunun batı yamaçları henüz yeşillikle
kaplanmamıştı ve gölsel sedimentlerin hem yatay, hem düşey tabakalanması açıkça ortaya çıkmıştı.
Bir gece önce biraz yağmur yağmıştı. Karamanoğlu ile yol yamaçlarında biraz yürüyüp
ayaklarımızın altındaki yuvarlanan kayaçlarda bulunan fosil fragmanlarım inceledik. Tabakalar
halindeki diyatomitli toprağın en üst tabakası düşey doğrultudaydı ve bu süngerimsi kayaçların
tabakaları doğal olarak kitap büyüklüğünde tabakalara ayrılmıştı. Yağmur suyunu emdiklerinden
her taşı kütüphaneden bir kitap alır gibi kolaylıkla alabiliyorduk. Her diyatomitli levha
parçası üzerinde güzel bir fosil izi bulunuyordu.

A LATE-TERTIARY CONIFER-HARDWOOD FOREST FROM THE VICINITY OF GÜVEM VILLAGE. NEAR KIZILCAHAMAM, ANKARA

Year 1977, Volume: 88 Issue: 88, 94 - 102, 01.05.1977

Abstract

It was in 1939 when I first visited Kızılcahamam to see the present conifer-hardwood
forest as well as the famous hot springs with my friend Karamanoğlu, a fellow student from the
Forestry College. I remember the long bus ride on the dusty old road from Ankara through
Kurtboğazı and the dangerous curves of Kargasekmez. That time, Kamil's father Remzi Bey,
assessor of the city, kindly invited me to stay in his three-story wooden house built in good
taste according to early Ottoman architectural style for the country homes of Ankara. We took
daily walks to explore the Scots pine forests associated with firs, aspens and oaks through the
valleys as well as to the hot springs and mountain steppes over the gentle hills. In 1968, more
than thirty years later, I visited Kızılcahamam again upon a picnic invitation by my old colleagues
Mr. H. Aksoy, Prof. K. Karamanoğlu, Prof. N. Sönmez and Prof. O. Düzgüneş, and
their families. After driving 14 miles north of Kızılcahamam, down the Çerkeş road, we passed
Güvem and reached Beşkonak where we selected a neat meadow by the creek as our picnic
site. The western slopes of the Kızılcahamam-Çerkeş road were still devoid of vegetation after
the road banks were cut off by bulldozers and both horizontal and vertical layers of lacustrine
sediments were exposed freely. A moderate amount of rain had fallen during the previous night.
With Karamanoğlu, I walked along the road slopes, examining the fossil fragments by rolling
rocks under our feet. The uppermost layer of the laminated diatomaceous earth was oriented
vertically and the sheets of these spongy rocks were naturally split into book-size platelets.
Due to the absorption of rainwater we could pull out any piece with great ease, just like pulling
out books from a library shelf. Every piece of diatomaceous platelet was bearing a beautiful
fossil impression.
