Gaziantep Arkeoloji Müzesi‘nde Bulunan Yayımlanmamış Kurşun Mühürlerden Bir Seçki: Devlet Görevlileri Tarafından Darp Edilmiş Olanlar

Year 2018, Issue: 27, 81 - 99, 30.06.2018

Abstract

Fırat nehrinin batı kıyısında, Samsat’a yakın stratejik bir noktada bulunan

Gaziantep şehri ticaret yolları bakımından da önemli bir noktada yer almaktadır.

Müze’de yaklaşık olarak 120 mühür bulunmaktadır1 Mühür sahipleri arasında doğrudan

merkezi idareye bağlı olanlar ile bölgesel sivil yöneticiler, askeri yöneticiler,

din adamları ve özel kişilere ait mühür örneklerine de sıklıkla rastlanmaktadır. Bu

makalede sadece merkeze bağlı devlet görevlilerine bağlı olan mühürlerden bir

seçki sunulması amaçlanmıştır. Bu örnekler günümüze kadar çıkmış yayınlarda

özellikle paralellerine az rastlananlar arasından seçilmiştir. Mühürlerin, grekçe

büyük harf yazıları Athena yazı karakterinde, küçük harfler ise Grekçe Unicode

karakteriyle yazılmıştır. Katalog düzeninin bir satırı da mühür için önerilen tarihe

ayrılmıştır. Bunun sonrasında katalog obverse (obv.: ön yüz), reverse (rev.:arka

yüz) olarak verilmektedir. Bilinenin tekrarından kaçınılması amacıyla grekçe kitabelerin İngilizceye çevrimi bir çok

uluslararası yayında da olduğu gibi gözardı

edilmiştir, ancak unvan ve görevler için dipnotlar eklenmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalarda

eserlerin buluntu yerleri tüm Anadolu müzelerinde olduğu gibi genel olarak belli

değildir. Buluntu yeri belli olan bir grup (1.6.92’den 10.6.92’ye dek olan toplam

10 mühür) aynı boulloterion ile basılmış olmalıdır. Bu grubun buluntu yeri olarak

müzeye sıklıkla eser getirilen nekropolis alanı olan Kurtini olması burada bir özel

arşivin bulunması olasılığını akla getirdiği için ilgi çekicidir.

A Selection of Unpublished Lead Seals from the Gaziantep Archeological Museum: Seals Issued by State Officials

Year 2018, Issue: 27, 81 - 99, 30.06.2018

Abstract

Gaziantep had a permanent role in trade routes, its proximity to Samasota and

setting on the west of Euphrates was also played an important role. Gaziantep

Archeological Museum has 120 seals, including the seals belong to state officials,

provincial and military officials, ecclesiastical seals and anonymous seals. In the

presentation of the seals we used Athena font for capital letters and Greek Unicode

in small letters. Besides, a line in the catalogue dedicated to the proposed date

for the seal. Since we avoid to repeat the well known fact we avoid to translate

the Greek insciption into English, but instead we put a footnotes for the titles and

dignities. Unfortunately, as always the case in Anatolian museums we do not have

any answer for the finding places of the seals, since most of them bought or confiscated

by the museum is also applicable for Gaziantep Museum. Only we have

an idea the inventory numbers (1.6.92 to 10.6.92) most probably struck with the

same boulleterion. According to the museum records these seals came from the

necropolis area known as Kurtini and one may consider the existence of a private

archive in the same spot.
