OLTU STONE
Oltu is a rich county in terms of history and culture. The Oltu Stone crafting, which is a nice hand crafting art, has a unique place in this rich cultural county.
Formation of the Oltu Stone
As it is understood from the plant fossils at the places, where the Oltu Stone is extracted, it is formed from the combination of the resin of the trees and clay and lignite.
Villages, where the Oltu Stone extracted
The Oltu Stone mine is generally mined in the villages situated north of Oltu. Some of these villages are Dutlu, Gulluce, Yesilbaslar, Taslikoy, Sulunkaya, Alatarla, Hankaskısla and Cataksu.
History of the Oltu Stone Crafting
The Oltu Stone crafting goes back about 200 years from today. But this fine art has gained its importance during the Republic period. This conclusion is reached by the ruins of mine pits in some of the villages, where the stone has been extracted and through the living witnesses of the old craftsmen, who say “ I have learned from my father, my father has learned from my grand father and he has learned from his father”.
