The turkish people knew bees in the wild environment and used the wildflower honey for nutrition besides it is confirmed in the written sources that when they settled in life they started to work in animal husbandry and apiculture. That was clear that there were insects on flowers on the walls ornaments made in Çatalhöyük in 9.000-8.000 BC.

Most beekeepers change the location of the beehive to enrich the honey in the all aspects.
