Processes of Formation of Ottoman Damascus - The Transformation of a Medieval City
Abstract
This study is based on an interpretation of Damascus urban morphology based on French cadastral maps. It focuses on the processes of urban fabric from medieval times (on the remains of the pre-Islamic city) to the Ottoman period, paying particular attention to the processes of formation of courtyard houses and their role in the urban fabric. The aim of this study is not to give an extensive description of all the stages and formation processes of Ottoman Damascus; but rather to analyze the most complex urban areas within the walls. It is also an attempt to describe most important transformation processes that were at the origin of the Ottoman urban structure.
