Turks improved kebab not invented it.
Kebab is a semitic word. I am not sure sth like Aramaic or Arabic itself.
Döner is Turkish though, it is a very recent invention, 19th century Bursa I believe.
Shwarma on the other hand is the mispronounced by Arabs version of the Turkish word çevirme which means ''turning one''
The orginal Turkic cusine is about milks and pastry. Yogurt(a Turkish word), Ayran, kımız, mantı, börek, ciborek, gözleme, sütlaç...
Not sure about dolma though, the word is Turkish but the food itself maybe not.
Most of the Kebab restaurants in Europe are owned by Turks though.

They told me they have a desert at Iconium
It is called Konya. It is not a desert, there was a volcano there which is why terrain is very dry. But it is steppe not desert.
