dc.description.abstractThe fels, which was found among hundreds of coins at different depths in the ruins of the castle in Kozan (Sis) district of Adana, is the only example found so far. The coin is of great importance in terms of revealing a dark period, which is known in general terms yet not elucidated in detail in the history of Egypt. The Turkishorigin governors from Balkh fought for their independence, some establishing their dynasties in Egypt as fully independent and others as semi-independent. Especially the copper coin belonging to al-Sari b. al-Hakem ibn Yusuf al-Belhi helped to reveal the details of this period. Although other dinars created doubts about independence among academics and numismatic authorities, no definitive verdict could have been reached. Many dinars belonging to the different governors who bore the name “Belhî” were found, but it was understood that the attempt for full independence was successful during the reign of al-Sari b. al-Hakem ibn Yusuf al-Belhi. Other coin samples found during the excavation prove that the Kozan region has been a battleground between the Arab and the Byzantine armies for more than three hundred years. The coin style, composition, weight, kufic script and other features clearly indicate that it is Fustat-Egyptian minted, with its typological features. The events of the period were evaluated in the light of numismatic data, and it was seen that the pioneers of the Tulunid State (Belhlis), which would be established shortly thereafter, had declared their independence in Egypt fifty-one years prior.
