Kurtuluş
Kurtuluş is a district of Istanbul, formerly known as Tatavla meaning "horse stable" (Greek: Ταταύλα). It lies within the cosmopolitan neighborhood of Şişli. Its population today is composed of Turks who moved there mostly after the Republic of Turkey was founded and became the large majority in the next decades, Greeks (now almost completely emigrated), Armenians (who still live there in numbers), Kurds (who are relatively recent economic migrants), and Jews (who still live there in numbers). The Turkish name means "liberation", "salvation", "independence" or "deliverance". It was originally well known as a predominantly Greek Christian neighborhood and later as a cosmpolitan neighborhood that included Turks, Armenians and Jews until the middle of the 20th century.
