Humanity has traveled from Hejaz to Bilad-ı Sham, from Iraq to Khorasan, from Maghreb to Andalusia, from Sindh to Hind, from Transoxiana to Turkestan, from Anatolia to Rumelia. Various civilizations have established on the basin throughout history. Many dynasties that ruled over these basins made important contributions in different aspects to the writing of their own, the basin's and human history. Although the resources emerged within the framework of these efforts are known by researchers working on the period, they are not known in a holistic and comprehensive way by scholars who want to study these basins, especially by young historians and researchers who are new to the field. Taking these concerns into consideration, the History and Historiography in Civilization Basins Project focuses on historians, historical sources and historiography.
