Although it was tried throughout the ages, it was Mehmet, a descendant of Osman, the ruler of the Kayı Tribe, one of the ancient Oghuz families, who took the city of Istanbul, of which Little Hagia Sophia is a part, from the Byzantines (1453).

      The Huns, Mehmet's true relatives, came to Rome 1000 years before the conquest of Istanbul, under the reign of Atilla (He died in 453), the Pope was brought to his knees, and we think that a series of events developed that caused the Turks to still be remembered as barbarians.
It would not be wrong to say that on that day, the Turks in the middle of Europe were again searching for their own essence, their own culture...

Just as giving the name of the legendary commander Byzas to Istanbul as Byzantion is a phenomenon related to the influence of legends on reality, we can think that the Wolf (Etruscan) stamp, which caused the ancestors of the Proto Turks (2000-8000 BC) and the Romans to turn the same cult into a state symbol, is the result of a similar phenomenon.

The metro construction in the Beşiktaş district of Istanbul revealed the fact that the archaeological remains encountered during the excavations were Turkish-type kurgans dating back to 3000 BC, that is, to the Bronze Age.

Turks were in Rome again 1000 years after the Etruscans...
And 1000 years from now, in Istanbul...

In fact, they have been traveling around the world for thousands of years, they did not hide in caves or trees like other peoples, they built houses and established a civilization, they were able to leave and mix with other cultures.
One of the conditions of being civilized today was how many countries a national passport could travel to.
Turks were the only people who could set foot on 7 continents for thousands of years. Naturally, as they went ahead of other cultures, they gave more than what they received from where they went.
They were the ones who domesticated animals and invented agriculture. If we consider the writing as Sanaskrit, you will reach the word and sentence structure that forms the basis of the first Turkish language structure. Naturally, they were not barbarians, yes they were fighting, but who wasn't?
We should not ignore that they are more organized...
Just because they are stronger does not make them unfair or tyrant. Let's leave the mistakes to history and continue to refresh our knowledge....
