Abstract: It is considered that fairgrounds and bazaars in Anatolia during the Seljuk period were the spatial reflections of the economical policies based on the international trade. The paper is aimed to determine the settlement typology and analyze demographical-economical size of bazaars or fairgrounds developed by means of the monumental-public buildings that were founded by Seljuk Sultans or Emirs using waqfs. Another dimension of the study is to examine the historical backgrounds of the bazaar or fairground tradition in Anatolia during Seljuk period. In this study, amethodology is considered that based on the plans and maps transferred from the historical sources such as waqffiyye or chronicles and archaeological- architectural inheritances.
