Abstract
Çalışmanın konusunu, Toronto kenti Ontario Kraliyet Müzesi’nde sergilenen ve Edessa (Şanlıurfa) kökenli olduğunu düşündüğümüz mozaik döşemeler oluşturmaktadır. Sözü edilen üç mozaikten ilki “Genç Kız Mozaiği” olarak isimlendirilmektedir. Bu mozaik, Edessa kentine has kaya mezarlarında bulunan ve yerel üretim özellikleri gösteren mozaik döşemelere çok benzemektedir. İkinci mozaik panonun üzerinde yer alan Artemis betimi, Haleplibahçe Mozaikleriyle çağdaş tasarım özellikleri yansıtmaktadır. Makale kapsamında incelenen son panoda ise aslan figürü betimlenmiştir. Aslan figürünün temel özellikleri, Edessa yerel mozaik atölyesi özelliklerini yansıtmaktadır. Yukarıda bahsi geçen opus tessellatum döşemelerden ikisi yani Genç Kız Mozaiği ve Aslan Mozaiği, İS 3. yüzyılın ilk çeyreğine, Artemis Mozaiği ise İS 6. yüzyılın başlarına tarihlenmekte ve stil ile teknik özelliklerinden hareketle Edessa’ya lokalize edilmektedir.
The theme of this article is the three mosaic pavements and we think that they are oriented from Edessa (Şanlıurfa) which are exhibited in Toronto Royal Ontario Museum today. One of the three mosaics mentioned here called the Young Girl Mosaic. This mosaic is very similar to the mosaic pavements found in Edessa rock tombs and showing local production characteristics. Artemis Mosaic, which is the second mosaic panel, reflects contemporary design features with Haleplibahçe Mosaics from Edessa (Şanlıurfa). The last panel reviewed in the article is the Lion Figure Mosaic. The basic characteristics of the Lion figure reflect the characteristics of Edessa local mosaic workshop. Two mosaic pavements, Young Girl Mosaic and Lion Mosaic, are dated to the first quarter of the 3rd century AD and Artemis Mosaic is dated to the beginning of the 6th century and is localized to Edessa with its style and technique characteristics and they are made in opus tessellatum technique.
