Notes	It is known that there are many studies on cities in the field of history. However, unlike them, in this study, we tried to make a general evaluation of cities over a certain period, instead of touching on a single aspect of the phenomenon called city or dealing with a particular city. In other words, the main purpose of this study is to focus on the city and urban culture in which most of us live today, in the XIII-XV period. We will see that it is to reveal its reflections over the centuries. While trying to reveal these reflections, we tried to draw a city portrait of the period around basic factors such as the physical structures of a city, that is, its architectural approach, the management approach and officials in the cities, the groups that make up the social life, entertainment culture, daily lives, economic life and to what extent this life affects the cities. In short, XIII-XV. It can be said that the answers to questions such as what is the phenomenon called a city, where does the origin of this phenomenon come from, and what are its similar or different aspects when compared to a city today are sought in this study in this period, which is generally called the "Principles Period" between the 11th and 16th centuries. That there have been numerous studies about urban areas in history is well known. Yet, in this study, different from others focusing on one single aspect of the term “urban areas” (city) or on one single urban area, an evaluation on urban areas in general during a definite time period was carried out. Namely, the main purpose of this study is to reveal the reflections of urban areas and urban culture in which we take part today, between 13th and 15th centuries. While revealing these reflections, it was aimed to create a portrait of an urban area making use of terms like architecture, namely physical structures; perception of management in urban areas and officials; groups making up the social life; entertainment culture; daily life; financial life and the extent this financial life has an impact on urban places. Briefly, suffice it to say that in this study it was aimed to find answers to questions like what an urban area is between 13th and 15th centuries, where the origins of this phenomenon come from, what the similarities and differences are when compared to today`s urban areas.
