 From the Year 1069 until 1917 Turks Ruled in Greater Parts of Middle 
East and also in todays Palestine. Fist The Seljukids, Artuqids and 
Zangids and later Mamluks and lastly Ottomans. But despite this nearly 
850 years long rule the Turkish heritage and contribution is often 
overlooked and underestimated in the literature. One of the most 
significant and visible heritage in the sacred landscape of Palestine 
are the building activities and inscriptions that are fixed in these 
buildings.

This book is a follow up to the 2006 _Turkish Jerusalem (1516-1917), 
Ottoman Inscriptions from Jerusalem and Other Palestinian Cities_ (ISBN 
  90-807403-4-9). The first  volume recorded 122 inscriptions from 
Jerusalem and 18 inscriptions outside of Jerusalem; in this second 
volume 134 inscriptions are recorded from towns outside Jerusalem and 9 
from Jerusalem.  Also the time range is also  wider, was in TJ almost 
all inscriptions from Ottoman times, this volume covers inscriptions 
from the entrance of the first Turkish rule  (1069) of the Saljukids to 
the end of the Ottoman empire (1917). So therefore the title of Turkish 
Palestine (1069-1917) is justified. The earliest inscription is from the 
year 476/1083 (Jerusalem nr. 123). From next places and next number of 
inscriptions are included. Hebron (73),  Safed (12), Nabi Musa (7) Ramle 
(8), Nablus (5), Lod (5), Yavne (4), Jaffa (8),  and from Tanturah, 
Haifa, Beysan, Azariya, Herzlya, Isdud, Dimra and Qalat Subaybah (1) 
inscription. Also recorded are 9 inscriptions from Jerusalem that were 
lacking in the first volume (9) inscriptions.

Each inscription is accompanied by high quality photograps and 
commentary on subject and form of inscription. The book is accompanied 
by a cd-rom with digital versions of photographs, so that one can 
compare the readings in details.
