I have found a couple of rounds they're marked arabic or pre-Kemal turkish, I can't tell.I can read the year on one, it says 1327 wich transfers to 1909 in our calendar.They measure something like 8x53mm if someone can recognise them.Thanks.

The crescent and star mark would indicate Turkish.

If you could show a full side shot it would help. I'm assuming 8mm (8x57)

No luck with the pics yet.But I had a contact with some locals and told these were used in Turkish army mauser rifles, a.k.a. turkmausers.
