Abstract

Wood, especially
in the Black Sea and Mediterranean Region where the forests are abundant, the
mudbrick made with soil and soil is used in Central Anatolia, and the stone is
widely used in the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts and east and southeast
Anatolia regions. The architectural tradition in a region, the geographic
conditions, and the economics of the material chosen are among the important
factors affecting the material preference in the structures related to the
local architecture. Along with the residences in Anatolian villages, buildings
such as mosques, masjid, coffee houses, village rooms, mills, warehouses, and
barns are also considered within the scope of local architecture. Sarıhacılar
is a village near Akseki that has mountainous and forested geography. As in the
traditional buildings in the other Akseki villages on the Taurus Mountains, in
the Sarıhacilar Village Mosque dated to the 19th century, wood and rubble stone
were used as building materials. It is stated that the wood-based dry masonry
wall system produced by the characteristic construction technique of
Akseki-İbradı Basin, which is referred to as buttoned wall in the literature,
reflects the thousands of years of Anatolia's tradition and is related to the
Bronze Age culture. The rectangular main part of the mosque was built with a
semi-masonry system and the later part of it was built with the buttoned wall
technique. This study was carried out in order to make anatomical diagnosis and
definition of some woods belonging to Sarıhacılar Village Mosque. The
anatomical features of the woods such as especially scalloped tori and
traumatic resin canals have shown that all the wood samples belong to the genus
Cedar (Cedrus). There are three
different species of cedar worldwide. These are the Taurus cedar (Cedrus libani A.Rich), Atlas Cedar (C. atlantica (Endl.) Manetti ex
Carrière, and Himalayan cedar (C. deodara
(Roxb. Ex D.Don) G.Don). Due to the fact that Akseki and Ibradi Basin are
located on the Taurus Mountains and the need for wood is provided from the
closest natural source in historical periods where the transportation
opportunities are difficult and limited, it can be said that all the wood
samples examined belong to Cedrus libani
(Taurus Cedar).

AKSEKİ SARIHACILAR KÖYÜ CAMİ AHŞAP TEŞHİSİ

Abstract

Bu çalışma, ahşap ve moloz taş kullanılarak inşa edilen tarihi Akseki - Sarıhacılar Köyü Camisi’ne ait bazı ahşapların anatomik teşhis ve tanımını yapmak amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ahşap örneklerinin cins / tür teşhisinin yapılmasına olanak sağlayan çalışılan anahtar nitelikteki anatomik özelliklerden traheid hücrelerinin radyal çeperlerindeki kenarlı geçitlerde görülen dişli torus, incelenen bütün ahşap örneklerinin Gymnospermae’lerden Pinaceae familyası sedir (Cedrus) cinsine ait olduğunu kanıtlamıştır. En son sistematik dizine göre (http://www.theplantlist.org) sedir cinsinin dünya üzerinde üç türü bulunmaktadır. Bunlar Toros Sediri (Cedrus libani A.Rich), Atlas Sediri (C. atlantica (Endl.) Manetti ex Carrière ve Himalaya Sediri’dir (C. deodara (Roxb. ex D.Don) G.Don). Kıbrıs sediri (C. brevifolia (Hook.f.) Elwes & A.Henry) C. libani var. brevifolia Hook.f. olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Akseki-İbradı Havzasının Toros Dağları üzerinde yer alması ve ahşap ihtiyacının ulaşım imkânlarının zor ve sınırlı olduğu tarihsel dönemlerde en yakın doğal kaynaktan temin edilmesi nedeniyle, anatomileri incelenen ahşap örneklerinin tamamının Cedrus libani (Toros Sediri) türüne ait olduğu söylenebilir.
