• İskender kebab is one of the most famous meat foods
of northwestern Turkey and takes its name from its

grilled lamb basted with hot tomato sauce over pieces
of pita bread and generously slathered with melted
sheep butter and yogurt. Additionally, one cylindrical

6. The Ottoman Shadow Play and
its Turkish descendants
• The Turkish tradition of shadow play called Karagöz and
Hacivat was widespread throughout the Ottoman Empire and
featured characters representing all of the major ethnic and social
groups in that culture. It was performed by a single puppet master,
who voiced all of the characters, and accompanied by tambourine
(def). Its origins are obscure, deriving perhaps from an older
Egyptian tradition, or possibly from an Asian source.
• During the 19th century these characters were adapted to the Greek
language and
culture, Karagöz and Hacivat becoming Karagiozis and Hadjiavatis
with each of the characters assuming stereotypically Greek
personalities. This tradition thrived throughout Greece after
independence as popular entertainment for a largely adult audience,
particularly before competition arose from television. The stories did,
however, retain the period setting in the late years of the Ottoman
Empire. Karagiozis theatre has undergone some revival in recent
years, with the intended audience tending to be largely juvenile.
