Rock-cut Architecture and Underground Cities in Koramaz Valley of Kayseri, Turkey

The valley; located in eastern Turkey near the town of Kayseri, has hundreds of rock-cut structures, in addition to several underground cities, and almost none of them have been studied before. Research conducted by a team from 2014 to 2020, resulted in this overview of all the rock-cut and underground structures in and around seven different settlements in the valley and aims for the physical documentation and inventory of all these structures. The book studies cliff settlements, rock-cut churches, underground cities, and funerary architecture in the valley. These ...
Caves and Karst of Turkey - Vol. 1
This book comprehensively reviews the historical background of speleology and cave research in the contexts of archeology and natural sciences. It also offers a summary of selected topics related to the karstic terrain of Turkey. Covering 40 % of the country's surface area, Turkey's karstic terrain accommodates thousands of caves. However, understanding the geology, geomorphology, hydrology, biology, and ecosystem dynamics of these caves is still limited. Despite numerous explorations and extensive fieldwork, this is the first comprehensive publication on the topic since 1984. The book presents the 45 most significant caves in Turkey, selected according to several criteria, including esthetical uniqueness. It covers caves of global archeological importance, such as Karain, Yarımburgaz and Üçagızlı, and some of the world's deepest caves, such as Peynirlikönü, Kuzgun, Morca, and Çukurpınar. The book includes a survey and a detailed description of the genesis, geology, geomorphology, and exploration history for each cave.

Subterranean Realms
Subterranean Realms is a unique book that surveys underground and rock cut structures created in the past. It is the third book in Mutton’s trilogy on mysterious realms, the others being Sunken Realms and Water Realms. We know who built some of these astonishing and mysterious structures, but others were built by unknown civilizations in prehistory for reasons that are debated among researchers. Some subterranean structures may have been built for initiation ceremonies or perhaps for acoustic reasons, or both. Mutton discusses such interesting sites as: Derinkuyu, an underground city in Cappadocia, Turkey that housed 20,000 people; Roman catacombs of Domitilla; Palermo Capuchin catacombs; Alexandria catacombs; Paris catacombs; Maltese hypogeum; Rock-cut structures of Petra; Treasury of Atreus, Mycenae; Elephanta Caves, India; Lalibela, Ethiopia; Tarquinia Etruscan necropolis; Hallstatt salt mine; Beijing air raid shelters; Japanese high command Okinawa tunnels; more. There are tons of illustrations in this fascinating book!
Fezmonot
Haberlerde YŞTC örgütünün lideri Yamaç‘ın boşta kalan devlet idare- sini aldığını yazıyordu. Yamaç hemen ulusa sesleniş konuşması yaparak, “Tüm Türkiye halkına sesleniyorum: Bu kargaşada ve kıyamette yaşayan tüm canlıları kurtaracağız. İdaresini aldığımız devletimizi daha güçlü hale getireceğiz. Bizler bu olayların olacağını öngördüğümüz için, geliştirdiğimiz tüm teknolojimiz ve silahlarımızla, topraklarımızı bu salgından temizleyip tüm dünyayı kurtaracağız,” dedi. Eşler sevinçlerinden birbirlerine sarıldılar. Yığar kasabasının belediye hoparlöründen, “YŞTC her yerde hâkimiyeti ele almıştır. Yaşam kampına götürülmek üzere kurtulan tüm vatandaşlarımız belediye binasına gelsin!” diye anons geçildi.

Village in the Meadows
These memoirs describe Pfunder's 'wonderful adventure' as a Peace Corps volunteer among the locals of a Black Sea village in 1960s Turkey.

Engineering Approaches on Sustainability
In general terms, sustainability is the act of meeting our own needs today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs (World Commission on Environment and Development, 1987). Obviously, the ability of natural resources and environmental systems to support our needs is limited. erefore, the major challenge for engineers today is to design and/or operate systems that use energy and natural resources sustainably. Designing for the environment is crucial. is book presents the recent engineering approaches to sustainability from research and practice. e chapters included in this volume are from the first International Sustainability Congress organized by Int...
