Antioch mosaics and their mythological and artistic relations with Spanish mosaics
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Blazquez, José Maria; Cabrero, Javier
The twenty-two myths represented in Antioch mosaics repeat themselves in those in Hispania. Six of the most famous are selected: Judgment of Paris, Dionysus and Ariadne, Pegasus and the Nymphs, Aphrodite and Adonis, Meleager and Atalanta and Iphigenia in Aulis.
A birds mosaic in Qalaat Seman
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Raynaud, Marie-Patrici
Pilgrims’ Baths are excavated since 2008 in Qalaat Seman, dating from the same period than the whole site (end of 5th century), they are partially dug. A large mosaic covers a courtyard surrounded by three galleries (circa 200 m2 ). Around 60% of the space is presently visible. The two excavated galleries present the same simple geometric pattern. In the contrary, the court is covered by a large pattern of adjacent octagons and squares. The originality and interest of this mosaic lays in the filling motifs of the octagons: each of them contains alternatively a bird or a vegetal motif. The birds present many different types and orientation, with bright colours and lively attitudes. The vegetal motifs between birds display trees, bushes and flowers. Some of them are replaced by an empty birdcage with open door. Geometric elements fill the peripheral compartments. This aviary presents an original interpretation of the mosaics showing birds, frequent in the surrounding of Antioch or Apamea, but presenting other forms. We will try to study examples of similar theme in order to locate the workshop of Qalaat Seman among the rich Near East mosaic production.
The fate of the antioch mosaic pavements: Some reflections
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Barsantı, Claudia
The paper offers a short memory of the spectacular investigations carried out from 1930 to 1939 in the area of the ancient Antioch, and also remembers the fate of the more than a hundred mosaic pavements uncovered and unearthed in that site. The most part of the mosaics had to be cut and removed in sections, so when the campaigns ended with the annexation of the northern Syria to Turkey and with the outbreak of World War II in 1939, they were objects of a sharing among the sponsors of that archaeological project. A disputable division that dismembered an extraordinary cultural heritage of Antioch.
Floral and geometrical motives of the pavement mosaics in East and West. The example of the Roman villa of Abicada
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Kremer, Maria de Jesus Duran
Even if the figurative mosaics are usually the ones to catch the attention of the archeologists and the public, we cannot deny the meaning of the geometrical and the floral motives for the study of the mosaics landscape in the roman world. The combination of the different motives, the colors chosen for each motive and their combination can help to identify the influences that determined the making of the pavements. East and West of the Roman Empire are no exceptions to this phenomenon.
From antiquity to modernity
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) İkizgül, Hülya Vurnal
It is not possible to mention my art without mentioning important exhibitions which have made possible the transition from antique mosaics to contemporary mosaics in Turkey. This is important in the name of determining where I stand in the historical progression. The important exhibitions opened during these time periods have elevated the art of mosaic from the antique value to contemporary merit. These exhibitions have been an obstacle to the death of this significant art and have formed the backround that made it possible to continue into contemporary works of art while standing firmly on the past. How does something which belongs in the past go on to the future? With the exception of the mosaics and frescoes which reflect the restrained and religious level of the middle ages, the issue of the resolution of the subjects of architecture and art in their entirety was in the beginning, fragmented and in a state of confusion in the western countries and Turkey. In the end, the developmental process was realized with the Bauhaus School. This school, founded in 1919 and aiming to join fine arts and architecture, re-opened the doors to mosaic, which gives pictures an extended life.
Kommegene ve Suriye Bölgesi mozaiklerinde yerel özellikler ve yabancı etkiler: Karşılaştırmalı bir değerlendirme
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Salman, Barış
Mosaics found in Commagene and Syria Region are works of a large period from The Hellenistic Period to Late Roman/Byzantian Period. For example while the mosaics found in Samosata (Samsat), the capital of Commagene mostly dates to Late Hellenistic Period, a mosaic pavement was found belonging to Byzantian Period in the same settlement. 3rd century A.D mosaics of Edessa (Şanlıurfa) the capital city of Osroene region are attractive with their local iconographies as well as includes foreign elements. It is also observed on the samples founded in the Haleplibahçe excavation in the late mosaics of the region. It is possible to make similar predictions according to some samples in other settlements of the region. In this study, local characteristics of the mosaics are going to be identified, be compared with the samples in other settlements and foreign effects and characteristics be evaluated.
Mosaic researches at amisos, 1996
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Aybek, Serdar; Öz, Ali Kazım
Çalışmaya konu olan taban mozaiği Samsun il merkezinin yaklaşık üç km. kuzeybatısındaki Toraman Tepe sırtlarında bulunan Amisos antik kentindeki yapılardan birine aittir. Büyük bölümü tahrip olan ve kuzey tarafı da asfalt yol altında kalan mekanlardan birinde çalışılabilmiştir. Yaklaşık 6.00 x 15.00 m. boyutlarındaki salon tamamen mozaik döşemeye sahiptir. Mozaikli dikdörtgen salon, Samsun Arkeoloji Müzesi içinde sergilenen ve Amisos Mozaiği olarak ünlenen paneller ile aynı bölgede bulunmuştur. Bu alan Samsun Sahra Sıhhiye Okulu ve Eğitim Merkez Komutanlığı içinde yer alır. Ancak, bu makalede incelenen örnekte figürlü kompozisyon yerine, geometrik bezeme ağırlıklı olarak kullanılmıştır. Mozaiğin bir bölümünde ortaya çıkan portre ise Geç Antik döneme işaret etmektedir. Mozaikte, diş sırası, dalga motifleri, ikili-üçlü giyoşlar ve rozetler ile zenginleştirilen çerçeveler, köşelerde bitkisel motifler ve kuş figürleri ile doldurulmuştur.
The mosaics with animals theme in the Southern Adriatic Between 4th and 6th century A.D.: Decorative and ıconographic schemes in comparison
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Omari, Elda
The study of the mosaics found on the south-east Adriatic coasts, between Epirus Nova and Epirus Vetus (the current Albania), highlights significant analogies between the animals’ representations depicted on these floors and those represented on the early Christian basilicas or buildings cover floors in Syria, Turkey and in some other important centers of Eastern Mediterranean and Northern Adriatic. The iconographic and the iconological analyses offer new clues to reflect on some well-known models which circulated throughout the Adriatic and the Mediterranean areas between 4th and 6th century A.D., in geometrical and figure patterns (Aquileia, Butrinto, etc.), as well as in daily-life patterns (Dyrrachium, Bylis, Costantinople, etc.). Also, there are interesting parallels between these patterns and those of the Orpheus mosaics (Ulpiana, Sicily, Sparta, Chahba, Istambul, etc.). The comparisons which will be drawn will enable us to reflect on the connections between Eastern and Western Adriatic areas with important centers in the late ancient era, which the sea does not divide, but rather brings together: such a perspective is viewed as extremely important in the study of the history of coastal countries in the Adriatic, the Mediterranean and beyond.
The research and conservation study of the mosaics of the Roman Bath at Metropolis
(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2012) Öz, Ali Kazım
Metropolis kentindeki en geniş alana sahip mozaikler Han yıkığı Roma Hamamı’nın palaestrası çevresinde bulunmuştur. Araştırmalar sonucu doğu portiko dışında tüm galerilerin mozaik döşemeye sahip olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Bu makalenin konusu olan ve 5.74 x 44.28 m. alanı kaplayan güney portiko mozaikleri, her biri farklı motif ve boyuta sahip 13 panelden oluşmaktadır. Paneller, teğetkare, sekizgen ve çemberlerin yanısıra chevron ve çift balta motifleriyle süslüydü. Ana panellerin arasında eşkenar dörtgen şeklinde ara motifler bulunmakta ve bu lozenge motifleri köşede sekiz kollu bir yıldız oluşturmaktadır. Geometrik motifli mozaiklerin yanı sıra hamamın kuzey tarafındaki Nişli Yapı içinde, duvar veya tavan mozaiği olduğu düşünülen figürlü mozaik parçaları bulunmuştur. Tüm mozaik döşemeler yerinde korunmakta ve bu yüzden çevresel etkilere karşı savunmasız kalmaktadır. Bu nedenle, 2009 yılında mozaikleri incelemek, değerlendirmek, acil koruma önlemleri almak ve geçici koruma çatısı yapmak amacıyla Koruma Projesi hazırlanmış ve 2010 yılında ilk aşaması gerçekleştirilmiştir.
