[edit] Comments

I want to talk about that flag.. As u know this is an israili flag which named as star of david.. I wonder how can this "Catalan Atlas" create an affair between a Turk-Islam Beylik and a jewish symbol. This flag is wrong at all.

It is the seal of the prophet suleyman (king solomon) and this seal was used very often in ancient islam. As proof you can see the flag of barbaros hayrettin pasa which contains the seal of suleyman. Likewise some turkish beyliks used crosses and the cross is the ancient symbol of the turks. But, it does create an interesting suggestion of why in particular the turks used it and not arab muslim tribes. Maybe this can be explained because one of the Turkish empires (Khazar) had jewish as a state religion and after the break up of this empire they might have emigrated to anatolia and adopted islam. It is clear that a large population of turks were jewish in the past in between the conversion from shamanism/tengrism to islam. 77.248.185.43 (talk) 16:22, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
