Abstract

Finally, Elina Gugliuzzo offers a review of epidemy control during Ottoman history, from the administrative perspective, focusing on quarantine facilities. The need to consolidate a wide commercial network and the density of the growing urban centers between the 15th and the 16th centuries were important factors in the breakout of plagues and, thus, for the establishment of lazarettos and quarantine stations which became true “systems” (health control rings).
