These are just a few interesting miscellaneous photos that I have.
I will constantly be adding more Turk related photos here, when I
find them.
A battle scene at Varna in 1444 when the
Ottoman Turks had well established
themselves in Southern Europe.
An Ottoman Turk
War Helmet circa 16th century.
A Memluk Turk
Battle Axe circa 15th century.
A recent Bosnian stamp honoring the Turks
with the image of a 500 yr old mounted Turkish
soldier
A statue of of the founder of the powerful Turk
empire in 1369-1501 AD Timur Khan
The successor to Timur Khan was the brilliant
Ulug Bey who was not only the Khan but a
scientist. He claimed, before any European, that the Earth revolved
around the Sun; and furthermore, Ulug Beg calculated the Earth year to
within seconds of what is accepted today.
