A few of the bazaars and handicrafts in Birecik, an ancient Commercial Center, have survived until today by preserving its historical identity. Long Bazaar, Urfa Gate Bazaar, small Bazaar, Demirci Bazaar, Attar market, köşker Market, Keçeci Market, Çulcu Market are the known bazaars and markets of Birecik.

As a result of the advancement of technology and hence the development of industrialization, weaving, rugism, selfishness and bakırlık, which is one of the historical handicrafts of Birecik, has almost disappeared today. Self-management , felicity, köşkerciklik and semerciklık (semerciklik) zaanlarının small number of workplaces and by the master continues today.

SELFISHNESS

The fact that the Euphrates coasts were suitable for cultivating hemp plants caused the development of this Art in birecik district. The separation of the self from the match is done by women in their homes, then the fibers of the self in the houses and on both sides of the Euphrates “Kabiye” were made into rope. This Art, which requires great ingenuity and mastery, lost its importance with the production of factory-type nylon ropes. Self-management is carried out by some masters today.

GOAT BREEDİNG

One of the oldest Turkish Arts, felicity is performed in the keçeci market in Birecik. This art, which has been carried out by 8-9 shops and numerous masters in this bazaar until recently, has been tried to be carried out by three shops and a few masters today.

Goat farming is an art that has been continuing for many years in Birecik and has succumbed to technology in recent years. The story of the goat was as follows; Şanlıurfa’lı young goat Master Salih karci Abu Said Libabid (Libabid: the plural of the goat in Arabic.) and how he invented the seal:

“- Abu Saeed Libabid has performed all the formalities of pedigree as we have done today, and has seen that the wool of the felt that it has opened after the rising tipping process does not unite and spreads rapidly. He continued to climb to the conclusion that the time of the climb was low.

However, the next time he opened it again, he observed that the wool did not fuse. Abu said, Who continued his work for 40 days, began to cry from his grief when he failed again. She said she was crying and she kept on top of it. When he opened the seal, he realized with great joy that wool fused in places where tears fell and thus he learned that wool should be given water during the tipping process.

TYPES OF FELT

Home felt: these felt which are used as daily radiance in homes are black, purple or white colored. They are embroidered and 2 cm. they are made in thickness.

If the ball is not in the hand, the ball is not in the hand. Sometimes it is placed on you. The felt is 2 cm thick and has zigzag and Moon Star embroidery in different colors.

Cedar felt: it is like household felt. Because it is spread on Cedar, its dimensions are adjusted accordingly.

Seal shepherd: “Kepenek”, also known by his name, this seal type are worn by shepherds. This felt made of white or purple wool is usually embroidered. However, it is possible to come across those who are in the chest area. Due to the fact that it provides a thick shade in summer sun, the shepherd seals which give warmth in winter are divided into two groups: sutured and seamless. Their seamless types are more valuable in terms of mastery and Care Management.

Winter felt: white wool, flat and embroidered, these felt circles “çırtık ” is a zigzag shape. After it is done, it is completely painted orange or pink with wool paint.

During the winter months, the size of the cushions below varies according to the size of the guests who are hosted in the houses when they are laid on the wool cushions.

Preparation of felt in Birecik:

The wool is embossed by hammering the girded tree by walking Hallaç. On the American diaper laid on the floor, colored embroidery from the raw felt is placed. On them, embossed wool is laid. Sprinkled wool is irrigated by hand and wrapped by making a roll to a tree pole on the ground. Both ends of the bearing and its circumference are well connected with the self. The process of standing down is started. Depending on the size of the felt, the roll is shot by moving back and forth with the foot in the tipping process with two or five people. After the first half-hour roll operation, roll is opened.

The scattered edges of the felt are flattened. Water is sprinkled again and the tree is wrapped in a pole. The second kick starts, which will last three hours. At the end of this process, the wools are stuck, but they are not fully intertwined. This is called “raw felt.” It is time for the raw felt to be cooked. The felt taken to the tepid section of Mahmut Paşa bath is folded in such a way that it can hug and beat a person with a chest and is beaten with a chest by turning it over the bath. The skin of the chest, the temperature of the bath and the water, ensures that the wool blends well. This is the hardest part of the art that lasts five hours.

The curved edges of the felt brought to the bath are straightened, wrapped again to the pole for 15-20 minutes the last tipping process is done. After this, it is left to dry in shade or sun.

Today, the tattoo process is completely abandoned in the bath, this process is done with machines in shops.

Woodcock (semerciklık))

Those engaged in this Art who make the saddle on horseback, such as Merkel and horse, are called çulcu.

The plans used to be laid on the camel and called ” havut” have something to do with this profession. But the fact that the camels generation was dying has caused this Art to disappear in Birecik.

Today, as a result of transportation with motor vehicles, animals such as horses, donkey and camels have lost their importance and therefore, “woodcock” craft is almost abandoned outside 1-2 shops.
