ZABŞALİ, TUKRİŞ VE LOSO BÖLGELERİNİ IÇEREN ALANDA İLAM DÖNEMİNE AİT TOPONİMİ ÇALIŞMASI İÇİN ÖNERİ

Bugüne kadar İlam merkezlerinin çevre bölgeleri üzerinde geniş çaplı bir araştırma çalışması yapılmamıştır. İlam merkezi olarak sayılan bu çevre bölgelerden biri, bugünkü Huzestan ve Fars illerinin kuzey bölgeleridir. Bu bölgelerle ilgili önemli bir özellik; metal madenlerinin bu alanlarda bulunmasının yüksek potansiyele sahip olması ve bu konuyla ilgili Miyan Rudan kitabelerinde de değinilmesidir. Ayrıca, İlam'ın dağlık alanları ile Miyan Rudan Ovası'nın ilişkisinin en önemli nedenlerinden biri de bu dağlık alanlarda bulunan metal madenleridir. Günümüzde Huzestan ve Fars illerinde metal madenlerinin yüksek potansiyeli bulunmamaktadır. Bu nedenle çevre bölgeler, bu metali temin etme rolünü üstlenen bölgeler olmuşlardır. Ancak bu bölgelerde İlam dönemine ait arkeolojik verilere çok fazla dikkat edilmemiştir ve İlam dönemindeki bu karanlık noktaları aydınlatmak ve bu bölgelerdeki İlam kentlerinin toponimi çalışmasını gerçekleştirebilmek amacıyla arkeolojik verilerinin yanında bu bölgelerde tarihsel incelemenin yapılması gerekir. Bu arkeolojik verilerden biri de bir çeşit yerel çömlektir. Bu çömlek üzerinde yapılan petrogra? inceleme ile bu çömleğin Huzestan ili (Bir İlam merkezi olarak) ile İsfahan ve Çaharmahal Bahtiyari illerinin (çevre bölgeler olarak) karşılaştırma yapılmaya çalışılmıştır. Böylece tarihsel ve arkeolojik verilerin yanında belirtilen kentlerin toponimisi amacıyla bu çömlek türünün dönemi ve menşei hakkında daha kesin bir söz söylememizi mümkün olacaktır.

A SUGGESTION FOR THE TOPONYMY OF SEVERAL ELAMITE REGIONS INCLUDING ZABSHALI, TUKRISH AND LU.SU

This study focuses on three regions namely Zabshali, Tukrish and LU.SU. So far, there have been no studies conducted extensively on the regions surrounding Elamite. One of the surrounding regions cover the north of present-day provinces Fars and Khuzestan as Elamite centres in the ancient era. The noteworthy point about these regions is their potentially rich metal mines. This has been mentioned in the Mesopotamian inscriptions, mainly explaining the link between the Mesopotamian plain and the highlands of Elam. The present-day provinces, Khuzestan and Fars, have small potentials for metal mines. Hence, they only served as surrounding regions supplying the metals. However, little investigation has been done on the archaeological data from the Elamite Era. It is crucial to carry out a historical study on these regions along with the archaeological data to enlighten the dark spots in the Elamite Era, and ultimately provide a toponymy of the Elamite cities. One instance of such archaeological data involves various types of local pottery in Khuzestan (as a central city of Elam), which was compared through petrography against the samples recovered in Isfahan and Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari (as two surrounding regions). Thus, this paper intends to discuss more con?dently the era in which this type of pottery was built and its origin in order to provide a toponymy of the previously mentioned cities based on historical and archaeological data.
