Sadberk Hanim Museum opened on 14 October 1980 as Turkeys first private museum and this year celebrates its thirty-third anniversary. The collection of Turkish and Islamic artefacts gathered by Sadberk Koc formed the original nucleus of the museum collection, which has since been greatly expanded by donations and purchases. With the purchase of the Huseyin Kocabas, collection in 1983 the museum branched out into the field of antiquities. The Turkish and Islamic collection is housed in Azaryan Yalisi, a historic waterfront house on the Bosphorus strait dating from the late 19th century, while the archaeological collection is exhibited in the adjoining the Sevgi Gonul Building, which was restored and opened in 1988. The Archaeological Section of Sadberk Hanim Museum is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. The collection consisting of nearly 7000 objects ranges from the Late Neolithic Age to the Byzantine Period, making it possible to trace the course of successive Anatolian civilizations through their material culture. Archaeological Section of the museum has steadily grown over the years, with the purchase of rare items from overseas auctions and the acquisition of registered collections. Sadberk Hanim Museum Archaeological Section will have been open for 25 years in 2013 and it was decided to celebrate this anniversary with an exhibition entitled Traces of Ancient Ages, presenting 150 works that throw light on the periods to which they belong. These have been selected to best reflect the collections comprehensive chronological scope.
