EDITORS COMMENTS
This hauntingly beautiful yet poignant image captures the once vibrant and historic town of Hadjin, now known as Feke, located in the southern province of Adana, Turkey. The valley, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills, was once home to a thriving Armenian community under the Ottoman Empire. However, the peace and prosperity were shattered during the late 19th and early 20th centuries when the region became the scene of the Turko-Armenian Horrors. The atrocities that unfolded during this period are now infamously known as the Armenian Genocide, a tragic chapter in history that resulted in the forced displacement and massacre of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians. The houses and structures in this photograph serve as silent witnesses to the unimaginable suffering that took place within their walls. The ruins of the once-thriving Armenian community stand as a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity that was lost. The Ottoman Empire, which once ruled over a vast territory stretching from Europe to the Middle East, is now a mere shadow of its former glory. The image of Hadjin, now known as Feke, serves as a powerful reminder of the complex and often tumultuous history of the region. The valley, with its stunning natural beauty, offers a stark contrast to the dark history that unfolded within its borders. This photograph invites us to reflect on the past, remember the victims, and strive for a more peaceful and inclusive future.
