Research Abstract |
Both South-west Asia and South-eastern Europe have,form early times, the characteristic of a corridor, through which the races and cultures of these two areas passed cross-currently. And besides, South-eastern Europe having been once ruled for about 200 years by the Ottoman empire, there can still be seen a notable similarity in the material cultures of those areas. The aim of our present research was to investigate such similarities as was effected by mutual influences and as might be detected in the fundamental meterial cultures of these two areas. The areas covered by our research team included Turkey, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Hungary. From the results of the research, it is generally to be said that in South-eastern Europe Turkish elements are more noticeable in the south, but less in the north. In the middle and the south of Yugoslavia and in Bulgaria, Turkish cultural elements subsist and clearly noticeable in folk utensils and garments, while in Hungary Turkish elements have been completely wiped out under the Habsburg rule and its cultural influence, and milling, fiber-producing, and watering techiques in use there are rather of Germanic nature. Our single find of Turkish nature might be a horse-driven noria, but that was called "Bulgar wheel" named after Bulgaria.
