Underground Cities
Kaymakli Underground City
One of the characteristics of Cappadocia
is having plenty of underground cities. It’s known that there are more than a
hundred of underground settlements in the region and many of them are not open
for visits. The underground cities, which are guessed to be used since the
Bronze Age, used to be a settlement mostly in Byzantine period, doubtless. In
this period, increasing invasions forced local residents to build underground
cities for protection and religious purposes.
Certainly the most interesting features
of the Cappadocia area are the underground cities founded within. Until now
even that have been determined about 40 underground cities just six of these
have been opened for visit. Nobody can know how many underground cities there
are in the Cappadocia area. Some say that there is one for every village and
settlement in the region but certainly not all of the sites can be described as
cities. Well known underground cities of Cappadocia area are Tatlarin Underground
city,
Derinkuyu
Underground City, Ozkonak Underground
City,
Mazi Village
Underground City, Kaymakli Underground
City
and Gaziemir Underground
City
Derinkuyu underground city
The first inhabitants of Cappadocia
area have opened deep cavities within the volcanic rocks due to escape from the
attacks of the wild animals and hard winter conditions and then they have
enlarged these cavities according to their daily needs, they opened new
cavities and created the underground cities connecting these cavities with
tunnel and labyrinths. Later the underground cities were the place of the
hiding of the first Christians who escaped from the persecution of the Roman
soldiers and were enlarged to able when were necessary an entire city to live
and every kind of fixture necessary for the living of the people has been
attached. When there wasn’t any danger the people living on the ground in case
of the danger have hidden in the underground cities. For this reason all the
homes at that time were connected to the underground cities with a tunnel.
In all of the underground cities there
are ventilation chimneys reaching place by place to a depth of 80 and until the
underground waters. These chimneys were opened due to meet the need of both the
ventilation and water. Within the cities that are tepid in winters and cool in
summers there are kitchens, cribs, wine houses, depots for cereals, meeting saloons,
toilets shortly every kind of living space necessary for living. Within all the
cities there are locking stones which can be opened and closed only from inside
against to the threats which may come from outside.
Tatlarin Underground City
The oldest written source about
underground cities is the Anabasis named book of Xenophon (Written around B.C.
4). In the book is mentioned that the people living in Anatolia have caved
their houses underground and that the houses are connected to each other with
holes: “The houses were built underground; the entrances were like wells but
they broadened out lower down. There were tunnels dug in the ground for the
animals while the men went down by ladder. Inside the houses there were goats,
sheep, cows and poultry with their young…”
