Dizdar ((ペルシア語:دزدار Dizdār), (トルコ語:dizdar, kale muhafızı)) was the title given in the Ottoman Empire to a castle warden or fortress commander, appointed to manage troops and keep the fortress in its role as a defence point. The word is of Persian origin, meaning gatekeeper, watchman, guardsman or castellan. It spread to the west following the Ottoman conquest of the southeastern Europe. Dizdar commanded military unit in the fortress, but at the same time he was responsible for the settlement (village or town) under or around it as well, because the purpose of fortress was to defend the area. As a commanding person, dizdar had his deputy, called ''chekhaya'' ((トルコ語:kâhya)), and other subordinates (e.g. yasakci). His superiors were captain, sanjakbeg and other senior military officers. In 1835 Ottoman Empire abolished captaincies; the titles like captain and dizdar ceased to exist. ==See also== *Agha *Beg *Serdar 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dizdar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
