Summary/Abstract: Hungarian ethnographer István Györffy examined the Northern Marmara region of Anatolia as a member of a Hungarian research team; after this expedition, he published his observations about Turkish culture in two Hungarian journals, Falu and Levente, in 1921 and 1929. The present study aims to evaluate his observations, which are very important in terms of understanding a foreigner’s perceptions of Turkish culture, within the context of Turkish-Hungarian relations of that time.
