Abstract
Laz is a language which is a part of Southwestern Caucasian language group of the Caucasian language family and it is spoken widely in market towns and villages of Ardeşen, Arhavi, Fındıklı, Hopa, Pazar which are located in Eastern Black Sea District.
It is known that Laz is spoken in different regions of Turkey such as Yalova, Sapanca, Düzce, Akçakoca. Laz has existed as a spoken language until today. At the beginning of the 20th century, some Laz publications were made by creating the alphabet of Laz language, but these publications did not gain continuity and they could not establish a written language tradition. Recently, the idea of turning Laz into a written language has emerged among the Laz intellectuals living in Turkey. Based on this idea, many Laz works have been given in different fields such as language, culture, folklore, history and literature. In addition to the works written in Laz, there are many studies on Laz. In this study, it is aimed to determine and present the works written in Laz and the studies on Laz.
