- Hello.
Today, we are in Tekkeköy district, which is the heart of Samsun industry in our Central Black Sea series…
Have fun watching…
It is estimated that the first settlement in Tekkeköy, which stands out with its natural and historical beauties, is as old as the history of humanity. Let's take a look at the places to visit in Tekkeköy, which is highly developed in terms of culture, tourism and also industry.
Tekkeköy, which is approximately 14 kilometers away from the provincial center of Samsun, is adjacent to the Black Sea to the north, Canik to the west, and Çarşamba district to the east and south.
As a result of the excavations carried out in one of the caves in the region, cultural remains belonging to the Hittite period at the top and the Copper Age at the bottom were unearthed.
The presence of bronze and copper items and arrowheads made of stone next to the dead in the village graves shows that the district had an advanced technique at that time.
It is estimated that the town was 4 km away from the coast due to the sea being filled with alluvium, and then the sea to the caves region.
The district entered within the borders of the Pontus State in the middle of the 3rd century BC, and then passed into the hands of the Roman and Anatolian Seljuk State, respectively. It entered the Ottoman Sovereignty with Samsun by Yıldırım Beyazıt.
The name of the district became a town after the "Tekke" established by Sheikh Zeynüddin, who lived in the middle of 1250-1330, and the farm he created here.
For this reason, it was named “TEKKEKÖY”.
In 1399, Tekkeköy came under Ottoman rule. After the 1402 Ankara war, it passed into the hands of Kubatoğulları. The tomb of the last Kubatoğlu Bey, Cüneyt Bey, is located in the district of Terme. You can find detailed video about the tomb in the video on our channel. In 1419, Çelebi Mehmet added Tekkeköy back to the Ottoman lands.
During the Ottoman period, the Turks here and the Greek people from the Roman period lived in peace. However, during the First World War, the peace between the Turkish and Greek people was broken. According to the Treaty of Lausanne made after the War of Independence, the Greek people here were replaced by the Turks of Western Thrace.
It was established in the section where the Tekkeköy creek opens into the Kılı plain. One third of the district's lands is the continuation of the Çarşamba plain. Major sources of income include agriculture and animal husbandry. One third of the district's lands are the continuation of the fertile Çarşamba Plain accumulated by Yeşilırmak and is suitable for irrigated agriculture.
In order to meet the quality seed and feed needs of the Black Sea region, it is the most important agricultural livestock production farm of the region in the Gelemen State Production Farm on a land of 46 thousand decares in 1944. It is also among the aims of teaching technical agriculture and developing beekeeping in the region.
The Black Sea Copper Works, Nitrogen Factory, Industrial and Organized Industrial Zones in the Kutlu city region show that the district is economically developed.
The Airport, which was built between Tekkeköy and Çarşamba districts and became operational in 1999, has brought mobility to the district.
Tekkeköy Caves, which are located in the district and have been included in the archaeological definition literature in archaeological excavations and findings so far, is the oldest settlement in Turkey after Antalya Karain Cave and Marmara Yarımburgaz Island Cave.
Tekkeköy Caves, which are found to have layers dating between 15,000 BC and 60,000 BC, are the oldest human settlements in the Black Sea Region.
You can find detailed information about this place in the Tekkeköy Caves Archeology Valley video on our channel.
