Bayburt
Bayburt () is a city in northeast Turkey lying on the Çoruh River, and is the provincial capital of Bayburt Province. Bayburt was once an important center on the ancient Silk Road and it was visited by Marco Polo and Turkish excursionist Evliya Celebi. Remains of its medieval castle still exist. There are several historical mosques, Turkish baths (Hamams) and tombstones in the city and ancient historical cites such as the Çatalçeşme Underground Complex and the natural wonders like Sirakayalar Waterfall in the other parts of the province. == History == Bayburt (From the Armenian: Բայտբերդ "''Baydbert''" (Bagratuni era) which in turn derives from Ամբատավան "''Ambatavan''" (Arsacid era)) was originally founded by the Azzi people. Groups who subsequently either settled in the area or dominated it include the Cimmerians in the 8th century BC, then in the 7th century BC the Medes, followed by the Persians, the Pontic Empire, the Roman, the Byzantines (who called it Paipert), the Bagratuni Armenian Kingdom, the Seljuk, Aq Qoyunlu, briefly Safavid and eventually under Ottoman.〔(Bayburt Guide (en) )〕〔(Bayburt (tr) )〕 The town prospered in the late 13th and early 14th century because of the commerce between Trebizond and Iran.〔 It contained a Seljuk and Ilkhanid mint. Under Ottoman rule the town was the center of the Bayburt sanjak. It served for some time in the early 16th century as the de facto capital of the Erzurum Eyalet before Erzurum town was rebuilt.〔 The area was raided by the Safavids in 1553. Bayburt was captured by a Russian army in 1828/1829 and the town and citadel were largely damaged by them. The British traveller William John Hamilton commented on the ruins in the 1840s.
