Doğu kilise ve manastırlarında kayıt tutma geleneği
oldukça önemli ve devamlı bir şekilde uygulanmıştır. Özellikle kiliselerde başta
vaftiz olmak üzere nikâh, vergi ve ölüm gibi geniş bir yelpazede birey-toplum
ilişkisini esas alan kayıtlar tutulmuştur. Bu kayıtlarda, bireyden yola çıkarak
topluma yönelik bilgileri bulmak mümkündür. Diyarbakır Mar Petyun Keldani
Kilisesi’ne ait Ölüm Defteri (defter’ül
mevta), kayıtların tutulmaya başlandığı 1882’den 1955’e kadar kilisede
kullanılmaya devam edilmiş, bu tarihten sonrasında da terk edilmiştir.
Makalemizde, Diyarbakır Mar Petyun Keldani Kilisesinde bulunan “Ölüm Defteri”
bağlamında Diyarbakır Keldani topluluğunun 1882-1955 tarihleri arasındaki
şehirdeki durumu ortaya konulmaya çalışılacaktır.
Eastern churches and monasteries have been constantly
practiced with a tradition of recording both inward and outward with regard to
their believers. In this registration process, we can regard the church
hierarchy as intrinsic records. However, in the churches there are also
externally kept records, which are based on the individual-society relation in
a wide range of subjects such as marriage, tax and death, especially baptism,
and can be evaluated for the community. In these records, it is possible to
find community oriented information by going out on an individual basis. The
Death Registry (Defter’ül Mevta) by the Mar Petyun Chaldean Church in
Diyarbakir continued to be used in the church from 1882 to 1955, when records
began to be kept, and was abandoned after this date. In this article, the
records of the Death Registry kept between 1882 and 1955 at the Mar Petyun
Chaldean Church in Diyarbakır, will reveal the conditions under which the
community is found as an internal reading of the Diyarbakır Chaldean community in
that period.
