Summary
[edit]DescriptionOkmeydanı Archery Stones, İstanbul (13080315014).jpg |
English: A range stone is a monumental marker authenticating the success of the archer’s range. If the archer were a sultan, the mark is called “target stone”. In his book “Last Stones of İstanbul” (2006) M. Şinasi Acar writes: “Exceeding a target stone is called to have the range or to break the range… The location of the arrow was marked by digging the ground and filling it with pebbles. In six months the stone would be fixed to place. It is a tradition to celebrate this moment and the archer to give out presents.” Okmeydanı has the biggest number of range stones. Of about 300 stones erected until the end of the 19th century only about 30 are extant. SALT Research, Ali Saim Ülgen Archive |
