Özet:

The structure is situated in the bazaar of Odemis, 113 km southeast of Izmir Built on a foundation of rectangle, very close to a squre, it consists of a prayer hall (harim) with a wooden roof supported by wooden structures preceded by nartex supported by 11 wooden columns on nothern and western sides. Since the walls are plastered on both the exterior and interior, the construction material is not understood. The courtyard wall surrounding the structure on three side was built recently on the northern side. On the southern wall of the prayer hall, on both side of the semi circle shaped prayer nich (mihrap), two columns -pilaster shaped - semi buried are added as decoration. These pilasters surfaces are painted the same as other wooden structures and they have capitals decorated with thistle (kenger) leaves. On the arch of central niche, there is a panel with stenciled floral motif. Above the arch at the center, in another panel there is symetrical double alternating Arabic calligraphy of “besmele” - by the name of god, this inscription is, also, surrounded by thistle leaves stenciled reliefs. The structure which does not have built inscription has a panel on the top of the entrance indicating a construction in 1665 by Mehmet Aga- son of Kabasakal from Tire, as small mosque -masjid-, and mentioning that it was known as “Banii Mosque” and that it was restored in 1856.
