What do you know about Turkish Traditional Oil Wrestling?
477151
In ancient Anatolia (Turkey) where the Greek civilisation was first born, people had this sport. They put something like olive oil to the wrestlers (oldest evidences dated back to 2500-3000 years ago).\n\nBy the centuries, it became a Turkish tradition. The wrestler ("pehlivan" in Turkish) wears a leader short ("kıspet" in Turkish) and puts oil all of his body (it was olive oil before, but nowadays it's sunflower seed oil). Kırklareli and Edirne (two cities in Turkish Thrace) are leading this sport. Traditional oil wrestling ("yağlı güreş' in Turkish) has a championship every year at Kırkpınar (it's the most famous in Turkey, but there a lot of championships for every city).

Susurluk is a small town in the North West of Turkey. It is famous for its production of olive oil, soap and dairy produce.\n\nIn 1996, this township had been home to a fatal car accident after which it was found out that among the slain and injured were one parliamentary deputy, a known right-wing gang leader, a former beauty queen and a senior police officer.\n\nThe resulting political and social turmoil has come to be known as the Susurluk scandal, and the accident was described as definite proof of the link between politics, organized crime and the bureaucracy, refered to as the "deep state" in Turkish politics.\n\nSeveral people, including three ex-special forces members, were convicted of illegal activities and served prison terms

A turkey is bowling lingo for three strikes in a row. Probably, the most famous score for amateur and professional bowlers alike. This is partly due to the fact it has an unusual name, and partly because even a beginner can get one. The term dates back to before the turn of the 20th century. In those years, scoring was much more difficult and to get three strikes in a row was quite an achievement. During Thanksgiving or Christmas week, the proprietor would present a live turkey to the first person on each team who scored three consecutive strikes. The term has carried over ever since.

The Ottoman Empire ended in 1923 bone head, so unless your insulting question is retroactive I suggest you study up a little on the culture and the country before you embarrass yourself and betray your ignorance again.

Turkey Red is derived from natural Castor Oil and is expressed from the seed.\n\nAlso, you may like to know that..\n\n1) It is the only oil that will completely disperse in water.\n\n2) It is commonly used in shampoos and bath oils because it helps emulsify essential oils so they will dissolve in other water-based products.\n\nAnd\n\n3) It is beneficial to the skin because of its moisturizing abilities.\n\n-------------------------\n\nCastor oil can be reacted with sulfuric acid to make Turkey Red Oil, the first synthetic surfactant, a predecessor to Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. (Add Acid to Oil - Quantity/Dilution is unknown!)\n\nI have revised this topic over and over.. but almost to no avail :(\n\nI have included some interesting links for you to review.. I only hope my answer has helped you!\n\nTa, Mike =D

Bir önyargıyı ortadan kaldırmak, atomu parçalamaktan daha güç...Bizim hakkımızda önyargılar oluştu zaten.Bundan sonrası Allah kerim..\n\nSen de mutlu, sağlıklı ve hep başın dik kal arkadaş.

Ugh, it's a Turkish curse. The correct spelling is "siktir ol git", and it means f**k off.

Yogurt is the main representative food from my country Turkey. Yogurt is a Turkish word. \n\nSome of other traditional dishes are:\n\nA ravioli-like dish served with yogurt we call it "manti" \n\nHot dish made of grape or cabbage leaves stuffed with meat, and rice we call it "sarma" or olive oiled cold dish stuffed with currant and pine nut instead of meat.  \n\nTurkish delight we call it "lokum" \n\nShish kebab we call it "sis kebap"\n\nOlive we call it "zeytin" since we're mediterrian country, we eat olive at breakfast, not just in salads or pizza.
