  With its history that goes back millennia, Anatolia is studded with
  sites from different eras that are deemed sacred. The collected
  essays in this volume present diachronic and synchronic studies of
  Anatolian sacred sites from the medieval period onward that
  situate them within various spatial, urban, and sociocultural
  dynamics. Each article explores unique case studies that illustrate
  the role of human agency in the creative process of transforming
  awe-inspiring sites into sacred spaces. Collectively, the volume
  reveals that the magnetic qualities of such destinations create a
  web of sanctity, as well as a complicated matrix of economic,
  political, and social relations. The scholarly contributions published
  here emerged from the 11th International ANAMED Annual
  symposium, entitled Sacred Spaces + Urban Networks and held
  at Istanbul's Koç University Research Center for Anatolian
  Civilizations (ANAMED) in December 2016 This symposium brought
  together prominent scholars in the field and former fellows of the
  research center, including the volume's editors. While our initial
  goal was to explore different layers of sacredness in Anatolia,
  ultimately, the volume sheds light on parallels among case studies
  and presents the connectedness between these layers.
