Wandering the Edge
A Podcast about Ukrainian History with a Spot of Travel
The Ukrainian Harem
The Ottoman Empire is known, among other things, for its imperial harem. But a female slave from Ukraine turned the whole system of concubines on its head and ushered in an age of female domination. This was the famous and infamous Roxelana (aka Hurrem Sultan). One of the last of these great women was another Ukrainian - Turhan Sultan (or Nadiya). Another might have been Ukrainian - but I'm not 100% sure of her. In this episode, we explore their origins, how they got to Istanbul and how they goverened their respective courts.
