Abstract

In addition to cult identity, the Greek sanctu­ary could be defined as an institution, sculptores were rep­resented by their works there and these hon­ored them, increasing the social prestige of donors and intro­ducing the social sections of life through objects, İt was possible to see unreachable objects there and be able to approach them The concept of a common cul­ture. When we in­terpret the Greek sanctuary through the functions associ­ated with its internal arrangements, It is to be seen in its representative, instructive and, me­mo­rialising aspects. In order to see objects more ef­fec­tive­ly different ar­rangements were made, such as the use of benches, of niches in the wall and in the rock, ob­jects hug on the walls, the use of the columns and pedes­tals for statues and statuettes obtained in all periods.

Antik Hellen Tapınağı ve Kutsal Alanlarında Tasarım ve Düzenlemeler

Abstract

Tapınağı ile birlikte Hellen kutsal alanları, kült kim­liğinin yanı sıra, heykel­tıraşların eserleriyle temsil edildiği onları onurlandıran, bağışçının saygınlığını artı­ran; an­cak bu temelden hare­ketle yaşamdan sosyal kesit­leri nesneler üzerinden sunabi­len bir kurum olarak ta­nımla­nabilmektedir. Ulaşılması zor bazı nesneler orada görü­le­bilmekteydi. Hellen kutsal alanlarını ve özelde tapınağı iç düzenleme­leri ile bağ­lantılı işlevleri üzerinden yorum­la­dığımızda temsil edici, öğretici, hatırlatıcı yönlerinin bu­lunduğu gö­rül­mektedir. nesnelerin daha etkili bir biçim­de görüle­bilmesi için sekilerin, heykel ve heykelcik­ler için sütunla­rın ve kaidelerin kullanılması, duvarlara, kayaya açılan nişler, nesnelerin duvarlara asılması gibi farklı dü­zen­leme­ler dö­nem fark etmeksizin gerçekleş­tirilmiştir.
