Özet:

The immigrations that the Ottoman Empire was exposed in the 19th century launched a new social mobility in Ottoman territories after the Crimean War. Especially, the immigrations in 1864, starting with the great emigration of the Circassians after the Russian conquest, faced the Ottoman government a huge and massive migration movements that could not be compared with the previous immigrations. This immigration process, led to serious issues to Ottoman ports as Trabzon and Samsun which served as main entry points in Ottoman territories. This process, managed basically by the Refugee Commission, was a issue for the international community in terms of the political and social consequences of the immigration. In this context, the Quarantine Council that had an international character closely followed this process. This study aims to investigate the report on the conditions of immigrants in Trabzon and Samsun by Antoine Fauvel, French Delegate of Quarantine Council, which based on the reports of Dr. Barozzi, who was sent by the Sublime Porte, as a member of the Quarantine Council to these port cities
