Öz 1462 tarihinde Osmanlı Devleti tarafından fethedilen Midilli, stratejik önemi ve verimli toprakları sayesinde devletin özel ilgisine sahip olmuştur. Hem bu durum hem de başkente olan yakınlığı, adayı İstanbul ve saray için bir gıda tedarikçisi haline getirmiştir. Bahsedilen bu durumlar nedeniyle Midilli adası devlet adamları ve hanedan üyeleri açısından iyi bir yatırım alanı olarak görülmüş, adada normal vakıflar yanında çok miktarda yüksek dereceli memur ve hanedan üyelerine ait vakıflar kurulmuştur. Midilli’de vakıf kuran hanedan mensuplarından birisi de Mihrişah Valide Sultan’dır. Bu çalışmada, hem adadaki zeytincilik ve zeytinyağı üretimi konusunda, hem de Mihrişah Valide Sultan vakıf zeytinlikleri özelinde adada XIX. yüzyıl ortalarında görülen sosyo-ekonomik yapı hakkında bilgi verilmeye çalışılmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Midilli, Mihrişah Valide Sultan, Vakıf, Zeytinyağı, Zeytinlik.
