As a branch of learning, prehistory deals with the earliest history of man and is therefore part of human history. However, it comes very close to the natural sciences and is indeed the bridge between geology and history. It is much concerned with periods of time, which are also the concern of the geologist and the natural historian. Moreover, it uses a great number of research techniques which essentially belong to the natural and physical sciences. Therefore, one may refer to it both as a science and as the earliest phase of historical study.

Every poem conveys an experience and attempts to arouse certain feelings in the reader. When we have read a poem and understood its general and detailed meaning, we should try to decide what feelings the poet is trying to arouse in us. A poem may affect different people in a great variety of ways, and it is often impossible to define a poet’s “true” intentions. Our interpretation of a poet’s aims is, therefore, largely a personal matter, but at the same time it should never be far-fetched.

One of the most familiar sights in İstanbul is perhaps the one least visited. This is the Maiden’s Tower, which is called “Kız Kulesi” in Turkish.
