Abstract

The origin of tarhana is a topic much visited in earlier issues of this journal. This article proposes a much earlier genesis than previous contri­butors. Drawing on archaeological and linguistic evidence the author contends that the preservation method defined by the word tarhana has been known in Anatolia and Mesopotamia since prehistoric times and uses further linguistic arguments to develop links between tarhana and Ke?kek.
