Such documents recorded the sale or transfer of real estate before the transaction was finalized in the land registry. Written in Ottoman Turkish, this example originates from \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eAdana\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e and documents the sale of two separate properties: a residential house valued at 1,500 kuruş and an agricultural field also valued at 1,500 kuruş. The document is dated 12 Teşrin-i Evvel 1314 (24 October 1898), and the stated prices reflect assets of considerable value for the late 19th-century provincial real estate market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"1456\"\u003eBeyond its legal purpose, the document is particularly significant for its social and collectible value. The seller is recorded as Anuk, wife of Asadur, an Armenian citizen, while the buyer is Abdullah, a Muslim. This clearly documented transaction between members of different religious communities offers direct evidence of everyday economic interaction and coexistence between Armenians and Muslims in Ottoman Adana. As an officially stamped legal record, the document stands out as a strong example of inter-communal property relations and enhances its appeal to collectors interested in Ottoman social history, Armenian history, and regional studies of Adana.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1020\" data-start=\"1001\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1458\" data-end=\"1560\"\u003e• Document Type: Ferağ ve intikal ilmuhaber (pre-title property transfer certificate)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1562\" data-end=\"1591\"\u003e• Language: Ottoman Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1593\" data-end=\"1643\"\u003e• Date: 12 Teşrin-i Evvel 1314 (24 October 1898)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1645\" data-end=\"1712\"\u003e• Location: Adana (exact neighborhood unclear due to handwriting)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1714\" data-end=\"1782\"\u003e• Property Types: One residential house and one agricultural field\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1784\" data-end=\"1856\"\u003e• Declared Value: 1,500 kuruş for the house; 1,500 kuruş for the field\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1858\" data-end=\"1909\"\u003e• Seller: Anuk, wife of Asadur (Armenian citizen)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1911\" data-end=\"1939\"\u003e• Buyer: Abdullah (Muslim)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1941\" data-end=\"2071\"\u003e• Historical Significance: Documents inter-communal property transfer between Armenian and Muslim citizens in late Ottoman Adana\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2073\" data-end=\"2123\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Physical Characteristics: Official stamp present\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47708645163146,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_f4f7ad31-c4a4-485b-a069-2e3d614a124c.jpg?v=1771509988","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/ottoman-property-transfer-certificate-1898-adana-armenian-citizen-armenia","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
