The name Tahtaci is derived from the Turkish word tahta (wood). The name, which was due to the community’s working with woodcraft for long years, later turned into an ethnic and religious label. In some of the western regions of Turkey, they are also known by the names Turkmens or Tahtaci Turkmens. In Turkey, the Tahtacis had a seminomadic lifestyle until one hundred years ago. Today, they have a fully settled lifestyle, living along the south and western coastline of Turkey, mainly in the rural forest areas of Mersin, Adana, Antalya, Muğla, Denizli, Aydın, İzmir, Balıkesir, and Çanakkale.

土耳其逊尼派伊斯兰围攻下的异端社区：Tahtacis

Tahtaci这个名字来源于土耳其语单词tahta（木头）。这个名字是由于社区长期从事木工艺工作，后来变成了一个种族和宗教标签。在土耳其西部的一些地区，他们也被称为土库曼人或塔赫塔奇土库曼人。在土耳其，直到一百年前，Tahtacis 人还过着半游牧民族的生活方式。今天，他们拥有完全定居的生活方式，居住在土耳其南部和西部海岸线，主要生活在梅尔辛、阿达纳、安塔利亚、穆拉、代尼兹利、艾登、伊兹密尔、巴勒克西尔和恰纳卡莱的农村森林地区。
