Özet:

As it is known, the conservation and rehabilitation of historical environments has been on the agenda as a topic that has been discussed frequently in recent years. The new and current understanding of conservation is based on historical, cultural and traditional architectural features of the buildings that make up the old texture and environment to be preserved as a whole together with all natural and artificial elements and pass it on to future generations. Today, our country is rapidly losing its characteristic settlement identities due to the rapid population growth and the irregular and dense construction in our settlements as a natural consequence. Many of our cities and towns are still affected by this change and are witnessing the loss of our historical buildings, which are part of our cultural history. This is an issue not only for our big cities, but It is also the case for our rural towns and villages. Today perhaps we have lost our building heritage in many of our cities, but we have not lost it completely yet. We have still the chance to protect and save our rural settelments, that has not been completely disappeared. Therefore, we should not delay in dealing with small towns in their own special circumstances. The Çomakdağ-Kızılağaç village of Milas stands out as a unique example of a traditional village settlement in danger of being destroyed due to the aforementioned unplanned urbanization activities.
