Kış aylarında toplanan buzlar ve sıkıştırılan karın ot ve samanlara sarılarak kuyularda saklanması yöntemi tahminen en az 3000 yıllık bir uygulamadır. Türklerin Orta Asya'dan beri kar ve buzu kullanarak bunun saklama yöntemini bildikleri anlaşılmaktadır. Türkler, yaşadıkları coğrafi bölgelerin sıcaklık değerlerinin genellikle düşük olmasına rağmen yine de yaz aylarında artan hava sıcaklığına bağlı olarak serinlemek üzere kar ve buza ihtiyaç duymuşlardır. Batı Asya'da soğuk olarak muhafaza edilmesi gereken gıda maddeleri dağlarda ve doğal buz mağaralarında kar ve buz yardımıyla korunmuştur. Anadolu'da da Selçuklular döneminde ilkel ama yine de işlevsel olan buzhanelerde buz üretimi yapılmış, gıda maddeleri buz ile muhafaza edilmiş ve ihtiyaç durumunda bunların nakli yine buzlarla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Türkiye Selçukluları dönemi vakfiyeleri ile kaynakları ve Osmanlı dönemi arşiv belgeleri kullanılarak Konya ve çevresinde bulunan buzhaneler ve bunların özellikleri hakkında bilgi verilecektir.
The method of storing the ice collected in winter and the compacted snow in the wells by wrapping grass and hay is estimated to be at least 3000 years old practice. It has been understood that the Turks have used snow and ice, they also known the method of ice and snow storage since Central Asia. Although the temperature of the geographic regions in which they live was generally low, Turks still needed snow and ice to cool down due to the increasing temperature in summer. In the Medieval Age, various techniques have been developed for the storage of snow and ice, which are difficult and troublesome materials to obtain. Food that needs to be kept cold in West Asia is protected by snow and ice in mountains and natural ice caves. In Anatolia; during the Seljuk period, the foodstuffs were preserved with ice in primitive but still functional ice houses and their transportation was carried out with ice if needed. During the Turkish Seljuks period, 10 icehouses which were built by the foundations were identified in the regions of Konya, Karaman Larende , Beyşehir, Akşehir and Niğde. Five of them are in the center of Konya. Two of the remaining icehouses are in Akşehir and the rest of them are in Karaman Larende , Beyşehir and Niğde. Built in the first quarter of the thirteenth century, these ice houses are important not only for their preservation but also for their architecture and ice-freezing technique.In this study; information about the icehouses in Konya and its surrounding region would be provided with the help of endowment charters and sources of Turkish Seljuks and the Ottoman archival documents
