Turkey - Djihan (Cilicia)
Turkey - Djihan (Silesia) - the Town Square and neighbourhood. The Djihan is a river and it falls on the border between Turkey and Syria; dominated by the French, who supported the Armenians living in that area against the Turks. It is likely this was the scene of horrors when the Turks gained control of the region

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil yet historic town square of Djihan, a once vibrant community located in the Cilicia region of present-day Turkey, near the border with Syria. The Djihan River, a picturesque waterway that runs through the town, served as a significant border between the French-controlled region, where Armenians sought refuge from the Ottoman Turks, and Turkish territories. The image showcases the architectural beauty of the region, with a towering stone tower standing proudly in the background. The tower, a remnant of the town's rich history, is a testament to the various civilizations that have influenced the area over the centuries. The quaint, cobblestone streets are lined with traditional Turkish houses, their red-tiled roofs casting intricate shadows on the ground. However, this idyllic scene belies the dark history of the region. In 1921, the Turks regained control of the area, leading to the expulsion and massacre of thousands of Armenians living there. The town square, once a bustling hub of activity, became a scene of unspeakable horrors. Chickens, the only visible signs of life in this photograph, roam the empty streets, adding a poignant contrast to the desolation that once engulfed this historic town. This photograph, taken in 1921, offers a glimpse into the complex and tumultuous history of the Cilicia region and the people who called it home. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving historical sites and remembering the stories they hold, even in the face of adversity.
