Isolating the Threat: The Ottoman Quarantine System in Gaza and Al-Khalil during the Nineteenth Century
Journal of Urban History, 2026

This article examines the quarantine stations in Gaza and Al-Khalil, in historic Palestine, as key examples of Ottoman public health architecture. Constructed in the same years, 1847-1848, these stations shared planning principles while displaying distinct architectural features shaped by their urban and geographic contexts. Based on archival sources, original documents, and architectural analysis, the study explores how these stations embodied the spatial implementation of Ottoman medical policy in provincial settings. It argues that these facilities served not only as barriers to disease but also as symbols of a systematic, state-directed public health strategy. As an early output of a PhD thesis, this article contributes to the limited literature on the architectural history of Ottoman healthcare systems and their role in managing pandemics.

Fire is one of the disasters that can be prevented, or the effects thereof mitigated by means of appropriate management models in place regardless of their type. Fires, which are in the status of a social disaster, are a great danger that causes significant damage to historical structures, continue to threaten people, cultural structures and the valuable collections they contain, and cause the disappearance of many irreversible values in many buildings. Fire safety is an important component of cultural heritage. Regardless of the building materials used, prevention efforts against fires, which threaten all building groups, have made progress since the pre-1900s, but unfortunately, we still encounter great losses in every geography. The information obtained upon examination of the modus operandi of the cases about the cause of the incident and spread of fire, and about the first intervention and rehabilitation efforts provide guidance with respect to the management of fire risk. The aim of this study; in a fire that occurred in an important monumental building in the world in the recent past and caused significant losses on the cultural heritage; The reason for its occurrence is to open the focus of cause and effect for discussion through the damage, losses, and rehabilitation studies. The reason for choosing an important iconic monumental building as a case is to define the effect of fire management systems on the event, especially in buildings of this nature.

Kültürel mirasın geleceğe aktarılmasında kolektif belleğin önemi, ilgili koruma tüzüklerinde bellek kavramına yapılan atıflar dikkate alınarak incelenecektir. Çalışmanın ikinci bölümünde, Osmanlı Devleti'nin 19. yüzyılda geniş kitleleri etkileyen salgın hastalıklarla mücadele politikasının bir sonucu olarak kurulmuş olan geç Osmanlı dönemi İstanbul koruyucu sağlık kurumları genel hatlarıyla tanıtılmaktadır. Yapıların geçmişteki ve günümüzdeki durumları karşılaştırmalı olarak analiz edilip, toplumsal bellekte tuttukları yer araştırılmaktadır. Osmanlı sağlık tarihinin önemli figürleri olan bu kurumların yaşayan sınırlı sayıdaki örneklerinin toplumsal bellekteki yerlerinin güncellenebilmesi için günümüzde benzer bir yıkıcı etkiye sahip olan COVID-19 pandemisinin mnemonic (hatırlatıcı) etkisi araştırılmıştır. Bu etki araştırmanın son bölümünde, günümüz toplumunun hatırlama ihtiyacını gidermek için ilk kaynak olarak kullandığı Google aramaları üzerinden, belirlenen alana ilişkin anahtar kelimelerin Google Trends aracılığıyla çok yönlü analizleri yöntemiyle ölçülmüştür. Bu analizler ile elde edilen veriler, sonuç kısmında kolektif belleğin taşıyıcısı olan mekânların unutulan toplumsal belleğin "hatırlama" evresindeki önemi bağlamında değerlendirilecektir. Bu çalışma, Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi Rölöve-Restorasyon Programı'nda 2019 yılında tamamlanan "Geç Osmanlı Dönemi İstanbul Koruyucu Sağlık Kurumları ve Pendik Bakteriyolojihane-i Baytari Yapıları Koruma Önerileri" isimli tez çalışmasının sonuçlarının, Doktora Programı'nda Koruma Alanında Güncel Sorunlar isimli ders kapsamında değerlendirilmesi üzerine kurgulanmıştır.

Destruction, heritage and memory: post-conflict memorialisation for recovery and reconciliation

They also leave deep and lasting traumas in the minds of those whose lives are torn apart because of a conflict. Memorialisation of conflict-affected sites plays an invaluable part in post-trauma recovery and can contribute to the reconciliation of different groups involved in a conflict as these sites are representatives of communities' collective memory, identity and a source of unity and resilience. This paper aims to investigate post-trauma recovery and reconciliation processes through the phenomena of memorialisation. It aims to answer how and if the memorialisation of sites of pain can contribute to the recovery and reconciliation of affected communities and serve as examples for other people around the world.Design/methodology/approachThe documentation of such processes and the lessons learnt ca...

The war has resulted in discussions on intergovernmental organizations’ duties, powers, and responsibilities from the United Nations (UN) to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and international treaties. While discussing the role of the current international order in maintaining peace and security, it also created a space for organizations working on the protection of cultural heritage to review the effectiveness of their legal instruments and organizational reflexes in such situations. This article aims to review the position of the existing international instruments in the new generation wars, which can enable the protection of or damage mitigation for cultural heritage and their users at this stage where the uncertainties regarding time, space, and the situation in the war between Ukraine and Russia continue.

In the past, many destructive earthquakes occurred in Turkey, in which numerous historical structures were damaged seriously or even collapsed. In spite of the high seismic hazard in Turkey, unfortunately there exists no technical document regarding the seismic assessment and rehabilitation of historical structures. Considering this issue, efforts to prepare an advisory guideline document for architects and engineers regarding seismic risk assessment and strengthening of historical structures in Turkey were initiated. The guideline document under preparation is intended to follow the principles of the Venice Charter and the ICOMOS Guidelines. The guideline will be composed of different sections including the ways to collect data about the building, the selection of appropriate non-destructive or semi-destructive techniques, assessment of the existing building damage, the structural modeling strategies and types of inter...

SİNOP BALATLAR YAPI TOPLULUĞU ANALİTİK ÇÖZÜMLEMESİ VE koruma önerileri

In early periods it was conquered by different states as it was an international port and trading city. Therefore it is an important data that structures from different periods and with different functions can be found in the lower layers of the ground. With the Sinop Balatlar Church excavation initiated by Prof. Dr. Gulgun Koroglu in Sinop in 15th of July 2010, with the permission of ministry of culture and tourism and cabinet, the aim is to reach those values. In excavation regions which are urban archeological areas, thesis study named “Sinop Balatlar Construction Group Analytical Resolution and Protection Methods” was conducted in direction of wholistic protection and synchronized archeological excavation‐protection approach. The structure group known as Balatlar Church or Mitridates Palace in literature with history back to Late Roman – Early Byzantium period is located in Sinop city center, Ada neighbourhood, 24 section, 251 map section, 2 parcel and one of the most important ruins within the city. This structure group which is spread to a very wide area, is partially within new accomodation today due to city development and its physical integrity is interrupted. Excavation studies starting in July 2010, the previous studies being few and most of the structure group being ruinous, the singular functions of the structures have not been properly defined yet. Balatlar structure group is considered to be “gymnasium‐Roman bath”. Depending on the changes of accomodation starting from 3.century until 20.century, different functions were attributed to the structure group which is examined under the scope of this study. In the first part of the study, literature abstract, aim of the thesis and hypothesis was explained. In the second part, the history and geographical location of Sinop was investigated and the cult and beliefs and important structures that effect physical locality formation was researched. In the third section, the place and importance of Balatlar structure group in history was explained and then gymnasium‐bath structures were examined in direction of unique function of the structure group. The water heating systems of bath structures and classification of bath structures were explained. In addition, the legend which I determined to form the spatial‐functional analysis of the Roman bath structure groups in the world was used to finalize the study. After that the evaluation of analytical relief in context of analysis was made, restitution trial studies were made and evaluation of nearby cistern structure and other ruined walls was concluded. In fourth and last section, the study made so far was synthesized and the general approach for protection of archeological area and preventive precautions to be taken for especially Balatlar structure group were introduced. Özet Günümüze kadar ulaşmış olan kent surları, Serapis tapınağı, tersane, liman, medrese, cami, türbe, çeşme ve mimari yapılar ile Sinop birçok tarihi değeri barındırmaktadır. Erken dönemlerde uluslararası liman ve ticaret kenti olması sebebiyle farklı devletler tarafından birçok kez alınmıştır. Bu yüzden toprağın alt katmanlarında farklı dönemlere ait farklı işlevlere sahip yapıların burada yer alması durumu önemli bir veridir. Bakanlar Kurulu ve Kültür‐Turizm Bakanlığının izinleriyle 15 Temmuz 2010 yılında Prof. Dr. Gülgün Köroğlu tarafından Sinop’ta başlatılmış olan “Sinop Balatlar Kilisesi Kazısı” ile bu değerlere ulaşılabilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Kentsel arkeolojik alan olan kazı çalışmasının sürdürüldüğü bölgede “bütüncül koruma” yaklaşımı doğrultusunda eş zamanlı arkeolojik kazı‐koruma yaklaşımı ile “Sinop Balatlar Yapı Topluluğu Analitik Çözümlemesi ve Koruma Yöntemleri” adlı tez çalışması sürdürülmüştür. Sinop il merkezinde, Ada Mahallesi, 24 pafta, 251 ada, 2 parselde bulunan ve literatürde ‘Balatlar Kilisesi’ ya da ‘Mitridates Sarayı’ olarak bilinen Geç Roma‐Erken Bizans dönemlerine tarihlenen yapılar topluluğu, kent içinde yer alan en önemli kalıntılardan biridir. Oldukça geniş bir alana yayılan bu yapı topluluğu, kentin gelişmesiyle kısmen yeni yerleşim içinde kalarak fiziksel bütünlüğü kesintiye uğramıştır. Kazı çalışmalarının Temmuz 2010’da başlaması, daha önce yapılmış araştırmaların azlığı henüz tam olarak tanımlanamamıştır. Balatlar Yapı Topluluğunun özgün halinde “gymnasium‐roma hamamı” olduğu düşünülmektedir. 3. yy.dan 20. yüzyıla ulaşana kadar yerleşimin geçirdiği değişikliklere bağlı olarak farklı işlevler verilen yapı topluluğu bu çalışma kapsamında ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın birinci bölümünde, literatür özeti, tezin amacı ve hipotez açıklanmıştır. İkinci bölümde, Sinop’un tarihi ve coğrafi konumu araştırılarak, buradaki kült ve inanışlar, fizik mekan oluşumunu etkileyen önemli yapılar anlatılmıştır. Üçüncü bölümde ise, Balatlar Yapı…

Anadolu'da birçok şehirde olduğu gibi Afyonkarahisar'da da bu dönem etkileriyle bezenmiş camiler vardır. Bademli Cami yoğun bir bezeme programına sahip olması ve bezemelerinin özgün niteliklerini koruması açısından önemli bir örnek teşkil etmektedir. Ahşap direkli, düz ahşap tavanlı bu caminin kârgir duvarları sıva üzerine renkli kalem işleriyle bezenmiştir. Bunlar arasında en dikkat çeken kalem işi son cemaat yerindeki Sultan II. Abdülhamid'in tuğrasıdır. Bunun yanı sıra caminin giriş kapısından içeriye doğru devam eden yazı programı, 20. yüzyıl başında mekândaki ibadetin sembolik yansımasının nasıl algılandığını göstermesi açısından önemlidir. Caminin mimari özellikleri ile beraber çeşitli süslemelerden oluşan kalem işleri bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada; hem bakım ve onarım eksikliğine hem de kullanıma bağlı koruma sorunları yaşayan Bademli Cami'nin sahip olduğu özgün niteliklerin korunması için koruma önerileri de verilmektedir. Bu konuda makale yazarları tarafından 2018 yılında hazırlanan koruma projesinden yararlanılmıştır.

An approach to risk management and preservation of cultural heritage in multi identity and multi managed sites: Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Abraham's Tombs of the Patriarchs in Al-Khalil/Hebron

Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi or Abraham's Tomb or Tombs of the Patriarchs, names of the same historic sacred site, is the focal point of this settlement. Since this site represents the identity of different belief groups, this condition has indeed initiated conservation problems. In particular, the research puts forward main problems related with the mutually worshipped and used pattern of Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Tombs of the Patriarchs. It further seeks to discuss alternative ways of its structure-oriented conservation. Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Tombs of the Patriarchs is considered to be a holy site located in Al-Khalil/Hebron. Its history dating back to the Middle Bronze Age, Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Tombs of the Patriarchs witnessed Roman, Byzantine, Umayyad, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Ottoman periods, respectively. Above the tombs of Ibrahim/Abraham as well as his prophets and their wives who have religious significance in Islam, Christianity and Judaism; at some point in the Islamic period, a mosque was added and this sacred complex was transformed over time by different civilizations. After the establishment of the Israeli state in 1948, the conditions changed for using Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Tombs of the Patriarchs. Due to the tensions between Israel and Palestine, the building complex, according to the Hebron Protocol, was divided into two to host Jews and Muslims in 1997. This condition created some problems for the sacred site in terms of its sustainable conservation. Since this kind of a division creates difficulties in studying within the section of the “other” belief group, surveying the building complex as a whole, which is the initial stage of conservation process, is prevented. Thereby, the holistic approach of conservation cannot be applied for this building. Within this context, this research aims to discuss possible solutions for the protection and risk management of Al-Haram Al-Ibrahimi/Tombs of the Patriarchs, as well as evaluate the role of international organization related with heritage conservation.

21. Yüzyıl Dönümünde İnsan Kaynaklı Afetlerde Toplu Göçler ve Geriye Dönüş Sürecinde Tarihi Çevreye Yönelik Risklerin Yönetimi

Furthermore, the study aims to propose solutions via an established methodology. The working bodies of the United Nations demonstrate that the number of people who have had to migrate due to human-induced or natural disasters in recent times is constantly fluctuating, and every 20 minutes 1 person is displaced according to the data from 2017. According to the 2016 Global Trend Study of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the number of people who migrated across the world due to security concerns reached 65.5 million by the end of 2016. According to the Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction (GAR-Global Assessment Report) prepared by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), between 2008 and 2012: 120 million people were displaced due to disasters related to the weather (climate related, hydrological, meteorological) and 24 million people were displaced due to geophysical happenings (earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanos). International organizations working on the elimination of the effects of war and armed-conflict, assess the intensity of the conflict based on its physical and human impact. While the physical effects of war or conflict are defined in terms of human resources, infrastructure, housing, the economy and cultural values; the human impact is defined in terms of the number of affected, injured, lost, harmed and displaced people along with refugees . The forced mass migration that these disasters indirectly lead to, accelerates the loss of both tangible and intangible cultural heritage. The significant increases in the frequency and magnitude of disasters occurring at the turn of the 21st century, are severely damaging cultural heritage. The significance of protecting the heritage sites physically along with their users, comes to the forefront once again with the migrations resulting from disasters. Research indicates that migration is as old as human history and it progressed in proportion to technological developments and escalated with the industrial revolution. Especially in the 1990s, the globalization movement rapidly increased the speed and capacities of information and communication technologies and thus impacted events all over the world. Moreover, this situation changed the way disaster management was perceived and approached. The process evaluated within the scope of this study encompasses the national and international forced mass migrations resulting from human induced disasters in the 21st century, within the context of current protection issues. The mitigation of all negative situations caused by human induced disasters can only be possible with the protection of cultural heritage, disaster risk mitigation studies with a holistic approach, and proper risk management. In situations of war and armed-conflict, cultural heritage is damaged both by selective / targeted destruction and by general destruction (historical environment). Thirdly, the fact that legal procedures do not function due to the conflict, leads to the escalation of illegal excavations and the smuggling of antiquities. Moreover, it is one of the most salient risks that damages tangible and intangible cultural heritage in the event of forced mass migration due to major disasters such as war, armed-conflict and internal turmoil. In the case of forced mass migration due to disasters in historical settlements, it is not merely a case of people migrating but due to this migration the rites, rituals, traditional productions associated with the space and the cultural values related to the space are also abandoned. Some of the losses in disasters occur immediately and some occur after a certain amount of time. When the physical spaces that constitute the tangible cultural heritage are protected together with the original user, then the intangible cultural heritage is also indirectly preserved. The proper management of the crisis situation that emerged with disasters, the planning of return, the trainings to be provided to migrants and other implementations are discussed in the thesis in line with the protection of tangible and intangible cultural heritage in its place of origin and flourishing. Intangible cultural heritage has a cultural and social value for society. Trying to protect these values in the aftermath of the disaster will make it easier for the disaster victims to overcome the trauma they have experienced. The protection of monumental structures of the area, elements of civil architecture, and local productions in the workshops during and after the disaster, facilitate the return process of societies to daily life after the disaster and also help…
