Anadolu Hisarı, İstanbul Boğazı’nın Anadolu yakasında, ünlü Rumeli Hisarı’nın karşısında yer alan önemli bir tarihi yapıdır. Hisarın, Osmanlı Padişahı Yıldırım Bayezid döneminde, 1395 yılında inşa edildiği bilinmektedir. 2022 yılında yapılan restorasyonu sırasında, Hisarın bahçesine depolanan meşe hatıllarının 6 tanesinden dendrokronolojik tarihleme için disk şeklinde gövde kesitleri alınmıştır. Standart dendrokronoloji yöntemleri uygulandıktan sonra ahşaplar 1395 yılına tarihlendirilmiştir. Bu sonuç, tarihi kayıtlarda geçen inşaatın tamamlanma tarihi olan 1395/1396 ile tutarlıdır. Tarihlendirme sonucuna göre, Hisardan alınan örneklerin orijinal yerlerinin yapının ilk dönemine ait olduğu ve bu restorasyonla ilk defa değiştirildiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çalışmamız, İstanbul’daki bu tür tarihi binaların restorasyonu sırasında kaldırılan mimari ahşabın tam bağlamının belirlenmesinin, bunların orijinal parçalarının ve geçmişte gerçekleşmiş olabilecek restorasyon faaliyetlerinin zamanının belirlenmesine yardımcı olabileceğini göstermiştir.

Anadolu Hisarı, or the Anatolian Fortress, is a prominent historic building located on the Anatolian side of the Bosphorus, Istanbul, right across the well-known Rumeli Hisarı (the Rumeli Fortress). The fortress is known to have been built during the reign of the Ottoman Sultan, Yıldırım Bayezid, in 1395. In 2022 during the restoration of the fortress we collected a group of stem discs from 6 timbers stored in its garden for dendrochronological dating. The timbers were dated to 1395 after standard dendrochronological methods were applied. This result is consistent with the completion dates of the construction, 1395/1396, mentioned in historical records. The part of the walls from which the sampled timbers had been removed are from the original construction and were replaced during the recent restoration work. Our study shows that identifying the exact context of architectural wood removed during the restoration of such historical buildings in Istanbul can help identify their original parts and the time of restoration activities that may have taken place in the past.
