Sivas Kongre Muzesi Resimleri, Turizm

Sivas Congress was an assembly of the Turkish National Movement held from 4 September to 11 September 1919 in the city of Sivas, in central-eastern Turkey, that united delegates from all Anatolian provinces of the Ottoman Empire, which was defunct at the time in practical terms. At the time of the convention, the state capital (İstanbul) as well as many provincial cities and regions were under occupation. The call for the congress had been issued by Mustafa Kemal Pasha with his Amasya Circular three months before and the preparatory work had been handled during Erzurum Congress. The congress at Sivas took a number of vital decisions which were fundamentally to shape the future policy to be conducted in the frame of the Turkish War of Independence.

Sivas Çifte Minareli Medrese

Çifte minareli medrese Selçuk Sultanı Alaeddin Keykubad`ın kızı Hundi Hatun tarafından yaptırılmış olan Erzurum`da bulunan bir tarihi yapı. Açık avlulu medreselerin Anadolu`da en büyük örneğidir. Cephede, taçkapı formundan çok çeşme nişleri ile yarım yuvarlak iki payanda vardır. Taçkapının iki yanında yükselen silindirik minareler tuğla ve moazaik çiniler ile süslenmiştir. Taçkapıyı çeviren bitki süslemeleri kalın silmeli panoların içindeki ejder, hayatağacı, kartal motifleri cephenin en gösterişli bölümüdür. Doğudaki tamamlanmış hayat ağacı ile kartal motiflerinin bir arma olmaktan çok, Orta Asya, Türk inanışına kadar uzanan gücü ve ölümsüzlüğü dile getirdiği düşünülür.

Sivas Adının kökeni

Şehrin adı kentin antik dönemdeki adı olan Sebastia sözcüğünün evrimleşerek Türkçeleşmesiyle bugünkü halini almıştır. Sebastia ismi de Yunancada saygıdeğer, yüce anlamına gelir ki, Latince Augustus'un Yunanca karşılığıdır. Bu da Pontuslar tarafından kurulan kentin Roma İmparatoru Augustus onuruna onun ismiyle adlandırıldığına delalet eder.

Halk arasindaki rivâyetlere göre ise Sivas kurulmadan önce ulu ağaçlar altında kaynayan üç pınar varmış. Bu pınar Tanrıya şükür, ana ve babaya minnet ve küçüklere şefkat duygularını ifâde edermiş. Bu üç pınara “Sipas Suyu” denirmiş. Zamanla mukaddes sayılan bu üç pınarın etrâfında küçük bir yerleşim merkezi kurulmuş ve “Sipas” ismi verilmiştir. Diğer bir rivâyete göre ise Sivas ismi eski kavimlerden “Sibasipler”den gelmektedir. Sivas ilk çağlarda Talavra, Megalapolis, Karana ve Diyapolis isimleriyle anılmıştır.

Sivas ismi ile ilgili bir başka rivâyete göre ise, kentin adı Farsçada “üç değirmen” mânâsına gelen “Sebast” kelimesinden gelmektedir; Sebast ismi zamanla halk dilinde Sivas olarak yerleşmiştir

Sivas Kangal Dogs

When you study history of Kangal Dogs, you could not find any documents about them. There are several rumors about Kangal dogs; According to one rumor, the dog was derived from lion and tiger during Assyrian and Babillonian periods and were petted in order to provide protection against wild animals and use in wars and were grown up with great care, just like any Anatolian Shepherd Dog.
According to another rumor, the first Kangal was given to the Ottoman Sultan (Yavuz Sultan Selim or Murat IV) by an Indian Maharajah. The dog fought with the lion in the palace and killed it. Thus the sultan was considerably interested in it. When the army went for an attack and arrived in Kangal Deliktas nearby Sivas, the dog got lost, and that the species of dog in Kangal was derived from this lost dog.
Evliya Celebi mentions this dog describing it as strong as a lion in his inscription in the 17th century. It is believed that the dog was brought to Anatolia by the Ottomans and the Shepherd species in Europe were derived from this species when Ottomans invaded Europe. From Ottoman archives, one can find the dog mentioned as it was grown up with great care.
The long lifespan of Kangal is because of its being loyal friend to farmers breeding sheep and being the best dog species in fighting with wolves. Kangal dogs can do their duties under the harshest climatic and working conditions, and they don't recognize the meaning of fear. Care and feeding conditions are easier and simpler.
