Abstract

Adana the capital city of ancient Cilicia, is embraced by a land of fertile soils, traditional crops and unique knowledge, which has been transferred from the earliest to the latest people of the area since millenia. Some of the export and industrial major crops of the country are part of the local socio-economic structure since the Early Byzantine period, whereas some have been cultivated by the renovations performed during the Ottoman Dynasty. Cotton cultivation is the primary example practiced since Justinians period creating the cotton Anthroscape (the human reshaped basin-wide scale land unit and/or parts of it, explained in the introductory paper of this book) i.e., the lower part of the Seyhan (Saros) Basin (the lower part of the Anthroscape) with particular soil inherent properties and use of the traditional water resources, that have developed via the long-standing historical good management practices.

Evliya Çelebi The first and the greatest representative of the Turkish Travel Literature, who journeyed throughout the territories of the Ottoman Empire over a period of 40 years. He was born in İstanbul, in 1611. Coming from a wealthy family he received an excellent education and begun his travels in 1640. Evliya Çelebi’s collection of notes from all of his travels formed a ten-volume work called the “Seyahatname” (the Book of Travels).He died sometime after 1682; it is unclear whether he was in İstanbul or Cairo at that time. Although many of his descriptions were phrased in an exaggerating form or as the 3rd-source misinterpretation, his notes are widely accepted as a useful source of information about the cultural aspects as well as the lifestyle of the Ottoman Empire in the seventeenth century.

In my childhood this was grown as an ornamental plant in houses in Adana. I have personally grown several generations until the year 1962, in which we pulled down our old house to construct a modern one, compromising the beautiful small garden. Unfortunately, I have not seen this unique crop in the last 50 years. While drafting this Chapter, I have learned that it has recently been introduced to the US. In the leaflet of a seed producer, this vegetable is referred as “S.integrifolium – Turkish Orange, Turkish-Italian Orange”. Heirloom originally from Turkey and more recently from Italy. Orange-red fruits look like tomatoes. Tall 4 inch plants are spineless and are very attractive when laden with fruit. (For further information: www.​southernxposure.​com – Code 45601 and www.​rareseeds.​com – Turkish Orange Eggplant).
