3. The Şahmaran Legend
There are many interesting stories to be found relating to
Tarsus; of these, the ones concerning Şahmaran are the
most interesting . It has become the best-known and
most retold tale in the city and its environs. The story
relates the events of a young man by the name of
Camsab and Şahmaran the king of the snakes, a
creature with a human head and a snake’s body. The
tale is a story of close friendship, a deep secret and
betrayel that ends in death .
4. The story begins when Cansab the wood cutter is
lowered into a well by a group of friends to get honey.
Thus, he finds himself in Şahmaran’s underground world
where he is destined to stay due to his friends
abandoning him. Snakes capture him and he appears
before Şahmaran himself. Cansab explained how he
came to be there upon which Şahmaran shares a secret
with the young man.
Cansab is then forced to stay for fear that the secret
would be told to those living above.
5. After very long period of time Şahmaran
gives in to the pleadings of the young man
to released back to his own world. He is
advised not to tell of what he has seen or
to go to the baths. It was said that if he
should enter the baths his skin would turn
to snake scales.
6.
7. Cansab returns to his own world and for many
years tells no one of the events that took place.
However the countries ruler become ill and
Şahmaran is blamed for the illness. Soldiers
begin to look for anyone who has seen
Şahmaran. The rulers men begin to take people
one by one to the baths where they are to wash
themselves in order to see who knows more
than what they are telling.
8. Cansab hides for fear of this test but is
ultimately captured and returned to the
city.
When he washes in the baths, his skin
turns to snakes scales and the secret is
thus brought to light. The man is then
persuaded to reveal how to get to
Şahmaran’s hiding place.
9. The king of snakes is captured very quickly,
taken to the baths, cut into three pieces and sent
to the ruler. Upon beign cured the ruler makes
Cansab grand vizier and as result all the snakes
of the world became the mortal enemies of
mankind.

FRIENDS!
