| Notes | The seals found at the ends of the letters, transcripts and articles in the Prime Minister's Archives or at the right beginning of the Viziers' orders are remarkable in terms of their shapes, writings, stacking and contents. Reading the writings of these seals, which can be seen during the examination of thousands of documents, requires a lot of skill and expertise, and in order to understand some of them, it is necessary to know Persian and Arabic. Their value and importance attracted the attention of the esteemed Mr. Haşim Durgun, a member of the Archive Classification Committee, and they began to read and record them. However, since the document numbers of these read seals have not been determined and it is not known who they belong to, it is not possible to fully benefit from them. |
