Özet:

 The word population is the plural of the Arabic word nefs and means person. There is no doubt that the population is of great importance in the knowledge of demographic, economic and military life of a settlement. People, who are the most important figures of society, have always been curious about their past and have gone to the way of learning in various ways to satisfy this curiosity. In this regard, people tried to learn where their lineage came from, what professions their grandparents were engaged in and what kind of family structure they had. On this occasion, population records are important sources that provide access to this information and similar insights. These records, which began to be kept starting from the year of 1830, were kept in Enegi as they were kept in every Ottoman city, and Muslim and non-Muslim citizens were registered separately; these records provided various data regarding the people who lived in Enegi. This study includes numerical statistics of the jizya tax, which non-Muslim citizens had to pay the empire as well as providing information on the households, nicknames, typologies and ages of Muslim and non-Muslim citizens living in Nevsehir Subprovince attached to Enegi Kaymaklı Village based on population records. Finally, considering the taxes collected in Enegi, it can be said that the non-Muslims of Enegil paid more commercial taxes than the Muslims, and in this context, the non-Muslims who had at least one family member in Istanbul played an important role in the unification of the Ottoman countryside and the Ottoman urban culture.

 Nüfus kelimesi, Arapça nefs kelimesinin çoğulu olup şahıs anlamına gelmektedir. Nüfusun, bir yerleşim yerinin demografik, iktisadi ve askerî hayatının bilinmesinde öneminin büyük olduğuna dair şüphe yoktur. Toplumun en önemli figürü olan insanlar geçmişlerini her zaman merak etmişler ve bu merakı gidermek için muhtelif yollar ile geçmişlerini öğrenme yoluna gitmişlerdir. Bu minvalde insanlar soylarının nereden geldiğini, aile büyüklerinin hangi mesleklerle meşgul olduklarını ve nasıl bir aile yapısına sahip olduklarını öğrenmeye çalışmışlardır. Bu vesile ile nüfus defterleri bu ve benzeri bilgilere erişim sağlayacak önemli kaynaklardandır. 1830 yılından itibaren tutulmaya başlanan bu kayıtlar her Osmanlı şehrinde olduğu gibi Enegide de tutulmuş ve Müslüman ve gayrimüslim tebaa ayrı ayrı kaydedilmiştir; bu kayıtlar burada yaşayan halk ile alakalı muhtelif veriler sunmuştur. İşbu çalışma da nüfus defterlerinden hareketle Nevşehir Kazasına tabi Enegi Kaymaklı Karyesinde yaşayan Müslüman ve gayrimüslim şahısların hane, lakap, tipoloji ve yaşlarına dair bilgiler sunmanın ötesinde gayrimüslim reayanın imparatorluğa ödemek durumunda olduğu cizye vergisine ait sayısal istatistikleri içermektedir. Son olarak Enegide toplanan vergiler göz önüne alındığında Enegili gayrimüslimlerin Müslümanlara kıyasla maddi açıdan daha güçlü oldukları ve bu bağlamda, en az bir aile üyesini İstanbulda bulunduran gayrimüslimlerin Osmanlı kırsalının ve Osmanlı şehir kültürünün birleşmesinde önemli bir rol oynadığı söylenebilir.
