Abstract (EN)
Kinet Höyük is on the east, Alanya on the west, the Taurus Mountains on the north and the Mediterranean Sea on the south. Ancient historians and geographers divided the Cilicia Region into two in their works and mentioned these two regions as Cilicia Trakheia (Mountains) and Cilicia Pedias (Plain). Cilicia Region; With its fertile lands, abundant water resources, ancient ports, it attracted the attention of different societies and left a mark on the historical scene. Cultural blending occurred in the Cilician Region, which was invaded by the attention of different societies and engaged in trade. With this blending, foreign gods and local gods were combined and new god epithets and forms emerged. These gods; Athena Oreia, Artemis Perasia, Aphrodite Kasalitis, Demeter Karpotrophos, Tykhe, Hygeia, Zeus Olybris, Zeus Olympios, Zeus Hypsistos, Zeus Kolonaios, Zeus Soter, Zeus Theos, Zeus Kasios, Poseidon Asphaleios, Hephaistos, Apollon Patroos, Apollon Epekios, It is the cult of Hermes, Dionysus Kallikarpos, Lares Penates and the Emperor. Different god cults gave birth to different temple structures. The temple structure, which we think belongs to Tykhe in the light of form and finds, located in the ancient city of Kelenderis in the Mountainous Cilicia Region, the temple structures of Tykhe and Zeus Olbios identified in Uzuncaburç (Diokaisareia), the Great and Small temple structures in Korykos, The temple structure in Eleiussa Sebaste and the Catiören Temple of Hermes. In the Plains Cilicia Region, there are the Donuk (Dönük) Stone temple in Tarsus and the Athena Magarsia temples in the ancient city of Magarsus. Keywords: Mountain, Emperor, Cilicia, Cult, Plain, God, Goddess, Temple.
