The Temettuat registers cast a light upon the socio-economic history of the 19^th century. However, any general historical narration and the widely accepted urban histary cannot draw a complete picture of each city. For this reason, a reconsideration of the main sour­ces of socio-economic data, such as the temettuat regis­ters, with different perspectives can bring change to many historical roles and to the characteristics of cit­ies. Salonica, which was one of the most important cities of the Ottoman State in the Rumelian Region and was at­tracting attention with its cosmopolitan structure, should be subjected to re-examination from the eviden­ce pro­vid­ed by the temettuat registers. Among the Muslim neigh­borhoods, the Çavuş (Vlatadon) Monas­tery quar­ter of the Greeks, which was located far from other sim­ilar neighbourhoods reveals itself as a workers quarter with similar characteristics to neighbouring quarters and natural relations with them from the interpretation of the details in different records. With the power deriv­ed from the presence of the historic mon­astery, the Greeks who had lived in this region for generations ex­pe­rienced in their daily lives different incidents and sit­u­ations from their resident cognates down in the city. In this context, they became differentiated from them individually and regionally and developed similarities that more closely resembled their neighbours.
