20.3. Şerife BAYKAL DAL- Adnan Hadiye Sürmegöz Secondary School
Zeynep Ece and Başak Ada are students in the best secondary school of Konya-Adnan Hadiye
Surmegoz Secondary School.
They are on a school trip in Çatalhoyuk.Zeynep Ece is looking at the sky.Her best friend Basak
Ada asks:
“What are you doing,Ece? Who are you waiting for?”
Then suddenly,they hear a voice and look at the sky.Ece is so happy and she is smiling.She
says“ It is coming”
Basak is surprised and afraid when she sees the bird in the sky but it is so beautiful and
amazing. Ece says :“I am waiting for you, Technobird.Our English Teacher Serife Baykal Dal
tells us your stories.I want to meet you so much and you hear my heart’s voice.Now, you are
here.I am Zeynep and she is my friend Basak”
Technobird answers: “Nice to meet you.I heard your wish.What do you want me to do for
you?”
Ece and Basak want to introduce the their city to the Technobird so the Techobird can tell the
people around the world Konya’s historical places and their stories.
Technobird asks with wonder: “Where are we now in?Let’s start.I am sure I will be so happy at
the end of this journey.
Ece starts to tell “ Here is Catalhoyuk. When you can take photos,I will give you information
about Catalhoyuk.This place is World’s Oldest Site.It is established around 7500 B.C.We might
see Catalhoyuk as a site whose history is about one of man’s most important
transformations:from nomad to settler.Art- both painting and sculpture- was playing important
role in the lives settled people.”
Basak adds “Konya has a lot of historical places.”
Technobird starts to flap his wings and a magical door opens. “That time,let’s fly there.Where
will we go?
Children say ‘Takkeli Dağ’ because it is highest mountain of Konya and Technobird can see all
the city’ landscape from there.
Technobird “What a large and beautiful city. You are so lucky to live here.”
Basak points at “Technobird, look at there!” and adds “There is ‘Sille’. It is my hometown.
Sille is on the historic King Road, Silk Road and Pilgrims Road to Jerusalem (Kudüs).You can
see mosques and the churches together. There are the Hagia Heleni Church,Milk Church, 7
Cave churches and there are also ancient rock dwellings , a Greek water bridge,and traditional
houses.”
