Abstract (EN)

If events like the radiant heat of sun going up 0.08 %, an the techtonic movements in The Tauros Mountains did not take place in 4th centuries A.C.; The Mediterranean sea lvel would not increase, weather would not warm up an become more humid and the lakes would not turn into swamp areas. As a result, malaria would not remain in Cukurova of Anatolia as endemic since the Neolitic era. However, this did not happen and malaria together with its epidemic and pandemic caused looses of life as well as making people ill, weak and hopeless. Poor Cukuorova people had nothing left to offer to Pagan Gods wanting fame, power and expensive gifts. Godr (Teos Piretos) gave negative reactions people who asked for wellness. New Gods were needed. These would be Gods for the poor, inferior and the hopeless. A heaven where all would be solved was needed to be promissed. The very healty should not be allowed in this heaven because they would commit sins because of their earthly pleasures. Christianity became the single formal religion in the beginning of forth century A.C. with the Milan Declaration of Constantius. This single religion was celebrated by burning Yumurtalık Askleipeion and İskenderiye Serapis Temples down to its foundations. While studying the Yumuktepe and Yuceören gave clues about the malaria in the Roman era. Molecular biological information were used for studying malaria's and mosquiote's evolutions. As a result, the second Roman Empire which was rising from the ashes of the First Roman Empire collapsed by the mosquito's wing slap was investigated.
