Editor's Note
It is a pointed-arch, single-faced fountain attached to a garden wall. Its inscription reads: By the grace of God, this fountain became a source of light; like a river of the wine of Kawthar it sprang forth in this spot. May this good work be accepted and become a beacon; Coşkunzâde Hacı Hafız was the cause of this charitable deed. (1261 AH / 1844 AD). Source: A. Esra Bölükbaşı Ertürk, Ottoman-Period Safranbolu Water Architecture, Hacettepe University, Institute of Social Sciences, unpublished doctoral thesis, Ankara, 2004.
