Kayseri Selçuklu Uygarlığı Müzesinde’ki
Bizans Dönemi Seramik Kandilleri
Özet
Aydınlatma ihtiyacı Antik Çağlardan
itibaren insanoğlunun en önemli temel ihtiyaçlarından birisi olmuştur. Ateşin
bulunmasıyla birlikte, bu ihtiyaç bir takım gereksinimleri meydana getirmiş ve
insanlar çözüm yolları aramaya başlamışlardır. Ateşin kontrol altına alarak,
yanlarında taşıma isteği günlük hayatı kolaylaştıracak aydınlama araçlarının
ortaya çıkmasını sağlamıştır. Dönem teknolojisine göre ve insanların istekleri
doğrultusunda farklı aydınlatma araçları kullanılmış ve zamanla gelişim
göstermişlerdir.
Antik çağda ilk kullanılmış olan
aydınlatma aracı meşaledir. Sonra onu şamdan ve kandil takip etmektedir. Şamdan
ve kandiller meşaleye göre daha yaygın ve uzun süre kullanım alanı görmüştür.
Üretilmiş oldukları döneme göre malzeme, teknik, form ve kompozisyon açısından
farklılık gösteren kandiller, kullanan insanların ekonomik durumu ile de doğru
orantı göstermektedir.
Bu bilimsel araştırma yazısının
konusunu oluşturan kandiller seramik malzemeden yapılmış olan, Bizans Dönemi’ne
tarihlendirilen aydınlatma araçlarıdır. Araştırmaya konu olan dört adet seramik
kandil müzenin teşhirinde yer almaktadır. Konuyla ilgili daha önce tarafımızdan
yapılmış olan yüksek lisans tezinde değinilen kandillere, bu bilimsel araştırma
yazısında daha detaylı incelemek amacıyla ele alınmıştır. Çalışma esnasında
kandillerin gerekli fotoğrafları çekilip, çizimleri tarafımızdan 1/1 ölçekle
herhangi bir çizim programı kullanmadan teknik resim kurallarına uygun olarak
çizilerek belgelenmiştir. Bahsedilen bu seramik kandiller; malzeme, teknik,
form ve kompozisyon açısından incelenerek dönem özellikleri de göz önüne
alınarak bilim camiasına tanıtılması amaçlanmıştır.

ABSTRACT
The need for illumination has been
one of the most important basic necessities of mankind since Antiquity. With
the presence of fire, this need has brought some requirements and people have
begun to seek solutions. By bringing the fire under control, it has enabled the
emergence of means of illumination that will facilitate the daily life of those
who want to carry it with them. According to the term technology and in the direction
of people's desire, different lighting tools have been used and they have developed
over time.
In ancient
times the first used lighting fixture is worn. Then he is followed by
candlesticks and oil lamps. Candlesticks and candles are more common and have
long been used. The lamps, which differ in terms of material, technique, form
and composition according to the rotation they produce, are also in direct
proportion to the economic situation of the people using it.
The lamps that make up the subject of this
scientific research are the lighting tools made of ceramic material and dated
to the Byzantine period. Four ceramic lamps subject to research are exhibited
in the museum exhibition. The topic of the study on the subject, which was
mentioned in our master's thesis, has been studied in detail in the article of
this scientific research. During the operation, the necessary photographs were taken of the lamps and their drawings were documented in accordance with the technical drawing rules without using any drawing program with 1/1 scale from our side.
These
ceramic lamps mentioned; material, technique, form and composition of the
period and to introduce it to the scientific community by considering the
period characteristics.
