Abstract :On 21 January 1929, a large fire broke out in Tatavla, where the Greek population in Istanbul constituted the majority, and more than 200 houses were destroyed. Later on, this fire was on the agenda of Turkish and Greek public opinion. Upon these developments, the name of Tatavla was changed to “Kurtuluş” by the Turkish side. There are almost no publications on this fire in the literature. For this reason, this fire and the work written by Aytek Soner Alpan on Tatavla were criticised.
Keywords : Tatavla, Kurtuluş, yangın, Rum halkı, Türkiye
