The valley; located in eastern Turkey near the town of Kayseri, has hundreds of rock-cut structures, in addition to several underground cities, and almost none of them have been studied before. Research conducted by a team from 2014 to 2020, resulted in this overview of all the rock-cut and underground structures in and around seven different settlements in the valley and aims for the physical documentation and inventory of all these structures. The book studies cliff settlements, rock-cut churches, underground cities, and funerary architecture in the valley. These shelters are estimated to have been built between the 7th and 10th centuries and even the smallest of these structures offer rich details for architectural, socio-cultural and historical studies. The rock-cut churches date to the Byzantine Empire period and during the research period, over 400 of these structures were explored, surveyed, and mapped in the region and with all these historical and natural values. Recently, the Koramaz Valley was accepted to the UNESCO World Heritage tentative list. This book is of interest to archaeologists and scholars of built heritage. 001461943 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 11, 2023). 001461943 650_0 $$aRock-cut architecture$$zTurkey$$zKayseri İli$$xHistory. 001461943 650_0 $$aCave architecture$$zTurkey$$zKayseri İli$$xHistory. 001461943 651_0 $$aKayseri İli (Turkey)$$xAntiquities. 001461943 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001461943 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461943 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aYamaç, Ali$$tRock-Cut Architecture and Underground Cities in Koramaz Valley of Kayseri, Turkey$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031293733 001461943 852__ $$bebk 001461943 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-29374-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461943 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461943$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461943 980__ $$aBIB 001461943 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461943 982__ $$aEbook 001461943 983__ $$aOnline 001461943 994__ $$a92$$bISE
