Abstract
Bu çalışmada, Mardin Müzesi'ndeki Osmanlı Dönemine ait 50 adet mühür katalog bölümünde detaylı bir şekilde incelemeye alınmıştır. Çalışma kapsamındaki mühürlerin ait oldukları dönem, formları, kullanım alanları, üzerlerine hakkedilmiş olan yazı türleri, ait oldukları yöre, yapımında kullanılan teknikler, süsleme teknikleri, kullanılan malzeme ve tanımları tek tek incelenip yapılmıştır. İncelemeye alınan eserlerin yapımında kullanılan malzemeler Bronz, Pirinç(sarı), gümüş, akik ve alabaster gibi kıymetli taşlar üzerine kazınmıştır. Üzerlerine kazınan yazı türleri açısından en çok sülüs ve devamında ta'lik ve latin alfabesi kullanılmıştır. Yapılan araştırma ve incelemeler sonucunda 50 adet mührün 2 tanesinin 16.yy'a ait olduğu, 1 tanesinin 18.yy'a ait olduğu, 11 tanesinin 19.yy'a ait olduğu, 8 tanesinin 20.yy'a ait olduğu, üç yüzlü döner tablalı 1 tanesinin ise 1 yüzünde 14.yy bir başka yüzünde ise 20.yy'a ait tarihler yer almaktadır. 27 tanesinin ise tılsım ve mühür yüzük olması nedeniyle herhangi bir tarih tespit edilememiştir. Bu çalışma kapsamında ele alınan mühürlerin form özellikleri ise çoğunluk olarak dairesel olmak ile birlikte elips, çokgen, prizmatik üçgen, kare ve dikdörtgen formlarında karşımıza çıkmaktadırlar. Genel olarak satın alma yoluyla ve müzeye nasıl geldiği bilinmeyen mühürler; şahıs(zat), Resmi(makam-kurum) ve tılsım mühürler olarak kullanım amacına göre değerlendirilmiş ve gruplandırılmıştır. Mühürler; damga mühür, yüzük mühür ve tılsım mühür olarak değerlendirilmiş olup yüzeylerinde stilize edilmiş bitkisel, geometrik ve hayvan figürlü süsleme motiflerine yer verilmiştir. Müzede bulunan eserlerin tamamında yapım tekniği olarak döküm ve kazıma teknikleri kullanılmıştır. Mardin Müzesi'ndeki bu 50 adet mühür günümüzde Mardin'de olmasına rağmen Akdeniz, Karadeniz, İç Anadolu, Güneydoğu Anadolu bölgelerinden mühürler olduğu tespit edilmiş hatta Anadolu toprakları dışından Suriye ve Irak bölgelerine ait oldukları anlaşılmıştır. Mardin Müzesi'ndeki Osmanlı Dönemi mühürleri adlı bu çalışmamızın başta tarih olmak üzere sanat tarihi ve arkeoloji gibi bilim dallarına ve bu konuda araştırma yapacak araştırmacılara katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir.
