De Me · About me

I am an editor with a deep interest in the ancient world — particularly the civilisations of Rome and Greece, the campaigns of Alexander the Great, and the Hellenistic period that reshaped the Mediterranean. My approach to these subjects is philological: I work directly from Latin and Ancient Greek primary sources rather than relying solely on secondary literature.

My contributions focus on the Turkish Wikipedia, where I aim to bring classical scholarship closer to Turkish-speaking readers. I am open to cross-wiki collaboration, particularly on articles related to ancient history, epigraphy, and classical texts.

Dum spiro, spero.
