Anatolia (including recent related patents.)
AnatoliaAnatolia (Greek for east), also called by the Latin name of Asia Minor, is a region of Southwest Asia which corresponds today to the Asian portion of Turkey. Because of its strategic location at the intersection of Asia and Europe, Anatolia has been a cradle for several civilizations since prehistoric ages, with neolithic settlements such as Catal Höyük (pottery neolithic), Cayönü (PPN), Nevali Cori (PPN B), Hacilar (pottery neolithic) and Göbekli Tepe (PPN A) and Mersin. The settlement of Troy starts in the Neolithic, but continues up into the Iron age. Major civilizations and peoples that have settled in or conquered Anatolia include the Hattian, Hittites, Phrygians, Cimmerians, Lydians, Persians, Celts, Tubals, Meshechs, Greeks, Pelasgians, Armenians, Roman Empire, Goths, Kurds, Byzantine Empire, Seljuk Turks and Ottoman Empire. While long being a blend of ethnic influences, historical Anatolia was largely a part of the European ethnic-sphere, whereas the Anatolia of today is primarily Turkic and Middle-Eastern in nature.This article is adapted from from Wikipedia All Wikipedia article text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License Folk Dress in Europe and Anatolia: Beliefs About Protection and Fertility (Dress, Body, Culture Series) by Linda Welters Islam in Anatolia After the Turkish Invasion (Prolegomena) by Mehmed Fuad Koprulu From Anatolia to Appalachia: A Turkish-American Dialogue by Joseph M.
