i(1430)'s house.

Gltepe
1nci Kme evleri, 179, Kayseri

10 mins walk out - "gecekondu" area, but he bought the arsa for 15,000TL for two plots, which he has sold to his son - so he says.

House traditional behind wall and gate in its own garden - they keep a cow. Large room in which I was taken, a central hall, a gelin's room.
{crossed out. why?} His other gelin lives independently next door, husband in Germany, she gets all the money. {end of crossing out} Other gelin next door.

{gl: almost certainly I felt unsure of the details. but plausible. Muddled?}
