Abstract

Founded in the United States in 1810, the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions began sending missionaries to the Ottoman lands in 1820, engaging in education, health and religious activities in this geography. In addition to the schools opened for boys, the missionaries, who care about the education of girls, also opened girls’ schools in many centers such as Adana, Urfa, Bitlis, Maraş, Erzurum, Bursa, Antep and especially in Istanbul, particularly to educate Armenian women. Antep was one of the most active places of the evangelical community in Anatolia. The Antep Girls’ School (Aintab Girls’ Seminary), which was opened in 1859 to educate Armenian girls in Antep, continued its educational activities until 1917, when it was closed. In this study, the 57-year educational process of the girls' school and its effect on the mission and the region were examined. The study has been based upon the periodical publications, microfilm recordings, Ottoman archive documents, and mission catalogs of American Board, and searching papers.
