About

As Mirasium, we assume the digital guardianship of Anatolia’s deep‑rooted collective memory and rich cultural heritage. Founded in 2025, this entirely non‑profit platform is dedicated to the rediscovery of works that have been left to fade on the dusty shelves of millennia of history, whose copyright has expired, and which have ultimately become public domain.

Public Domain: Our Heritage Without Restrictions

Our focus is the vast cultural commons that lies outside legal copyright protection – a shared domain that all of humanity can now freely enjoy, share, and use to build new works, without any restriction.

Our aim is to present this public domain in all its richness and diversity. Much like a small exhibition gallery at its entrance, our site points to the immense depth of an archive and a network of storage rooms that lie beyond, waiting to be explored.

Anatolia’s Colourful Mosaic

What you will discover at Mirasium:

– Rare manuscripts and documents, ranging from Hittite tablets to Ottoman surnames (imperial festival books).

– Drawings, photographs, maps and architectural plans.

– Audio recordings, films and videos that carry the sound of history.

These works, belonging to all the civilizations that once existed in Anatolia, are pieces of our region’s colourful mosaic, and each one whispers the story of its era.

Our Vision

For now, our priority is to provide pure access to this vast archive. Our vision, however, is to enrich this content in the future with expert analysis, curatorial exhibitions and in‑depth studies, thereby offering a kind of hyper‑linked Hazine-i Evrak (Treasury of Documents) – a content archive that truly celebrates the breadth and diversity of our shared cultural assets.

Mirasium is a platform established entirely for the public good; all our content is free and ad‑free. We invite the curious, researchers and all interested parties to this digital space where we celebrate the breadth and diversity of our common cultural wealth.
