Abstract

Bu çalışma, Sudan tarihi coğrafyasına verilen adların kökenlerini, kullanım amaçlarını ve tarihsel arka planlarını incelemektedir. Araştırmanın temel amacı, Sudan bölgesi için isimlendirme pratiklerinin nasıl ortaya çıkmıştır. İç ve dış dinamiklerin etkileri rollü da ortaya koymaktır. Çalışma, tarihsel bir yaklaşımı takip etmektedir. Tarih, arkeoloji ve dil kaynaklara dayalı betimleyici bir yöntem izledi. Yerel ve eski Mısırlılar, Yunanlılar, Araplar ve Avrupalı sömürgeciler tarafından Sudan'a verilen isimler arasinda olan Biladü’s-Sudan, Mahdi Devleti, Habeş Eyaleti, Func ve Fur Sultanlıkları, Musabaait, Koş, Merevi, Nabata, Karma, Alava, Makurat, Nübatia, Nübye, Vavat, Ta-Siti, Ta Nehesy, Belemiler, Bica diyari gibi, ele alınarak, her bir adın coğrafi, kültürel ve siyasi bağlamı açıklanmıştır. Sudan'a dair isimlendirmelerin büyük kısmı dış gözlemciler tarafından yapılmış, yerli halkın kullandığı isimler ise ya çözülmemiş diller nedeniyle kaybolmuş ya da marjinalleşmiştir. Bu durum, bölgenin tarih yazımında sömürgeci ve dışa dönük bakışın hâkimiyetini göstermektedir. Araştırma, Sudan'ın adlandırılma tarihinin, aynı zamanda kültürel temsil, kimlik inşası ve güç ilişkileri bağlamında değerlendirilmesi gerektiği sonucuna varmıştır.

Toponymic Practices in the Historical Geography of Sudan

Abstract

This study examines the origins, purposes of use, and historical backgrounds of the names given to the historical geography of Sudan. The main objective of the research is to explore how naming practices for the Sudan region emerged, and to reveal the roles of internal and external dynamics in this process. The study follows a historical approach and employs a descriptive method based on sources from history, archaeology, and linguistics. The geographical, cultural, and political contexts of each name are explained. Most of the names attributed to Sudan were coined by external observers, while the names used by the local population have either been lost due to undeciphered languages or marginalized. This situation reflects the dominance of external perspective in the historiography of the region. The research concludes that the naming history of Sudan must also be evaluated within the context of cultural representation, identity construction, and power relations.
