Editor's Note
It is located in the Meydanbaşı neighborhood of the Battalgazi district, within the old cemetery. Mistakenly known as an executioner's house, this structure is in fact a monumental tomb with a crypt chamber. Built on a square plan, the monument consists of two parts. The first part is the crypt, where the body was buried. The crypt's entrance lintel was set somewhat at a slant. Because the crypt forms the foundation of the structure, it was built entirely of stone. The second part is the upper section, called the tomb, which people once visited. The wall bonding in this part is predominantly of brick.
