Abstract

The aim of this article is to form a of about an 'Archeo-Park' by using M. Foucault's archeological analysis The article attempts to trace the process of discursive in the 'Archeo-Park' that is designed from the excavation of Aktopraklik Mound as the space of organized discourses of prehistory, architecture and sociology. As relevant units of discourses, the unity of prehistory, architecture and sociology based on the 'systems of dispersion' of their own statements about the objects in the 'Archeo-Park', exist as a unity of statement for conserving and displaying archeological ruins in their original places as open-air museums. As a follower of this of statement, the 'Archeo-Park' defined as Developing Cultural Sector at the Bursa Aktopraklik Mound: a Multifaceted Project as would be the space of both discursive and formation of objects.

Summary

Introduction

The bold footsteps of history can still be traced in rich archeological sites of Turkey, where various civilizations have flourished over the centuries and left their unique remnants in this magnificent piece of land. As official witnesses in retracing these historically flavored footsteps, numerous archeological studies aspired to grasp a different scent of history in Turkey since the 1950s. Diyarbakır–Çayönü project of Mehmet Özdoğan was the pioneer in the 1990s for the conservation and display of a settlement of a prehistoric period (125). These two projects would be main source of the ‘unity of statement’ for the scholars in archeology and prehistory disciplines and for interdisciplinary studies.
