They could also have a small and simple mihrab and some square-shaped or embrasure windows, Despite Eyvan turbe was common in turkey and has spread throughout Anatolia in Konya, Kayseri, Amasia, Afyon, tokkat, but were very rare outside Anatolia, Despite the simplicity of planning this type of shrines, it is considered one of the most famous layouts of funerary architecture. The Rum Seljuks dynasty was the golden era of the spread of the Eyvan Türbesi style, particularly in the seventh century AH, the thirteenth century CE, followed by the Beys Dynasty (the Turkmen Beyliks) but it was not preferred by the Ottomans. The importance of the research in shedding light on that unique type of mausoleums which were common in Anatolia and did not spread anywhere else except in Egypt; where there are two examples: Sadat al-Tha'alba (613 H / 1276 AD) and Alsnjan turbe, However, such a style was not popular in Sham and the Arab Maghreb, and try to identify the most important features And the Architectural Elements of this type of Shrines.

[1] - There are two models of Eyvan Türbesi. First, Al-Sadat Al-Tha'alibah Turbah (613 AH / 1276 CE) at Imam Al-Shafi'i Necropolis, with the entrance and iwan only. According to Creswell, its iwan is the oldest model of iwans in Egypt. It is about 6.30 meters wide and 9.89 meters deep, and the iwan is built with baked bricks. Creswell, K.A.C., The Muslim Architecture of Egypt, Ayyubids and Early Bahrite Mamluks, Oxford, 1962, P.78, Second, Senjan Turbah, which is 140 meters away from the north of Al-Sadat Al-Tha'alibah Turbah. Its residues show that it was similar to Al-Sadat Al-Tha'alibah Turbah and nothing survied from its iwan but the Western Wall, which is 7.15 meters long and carried –with the Eastern Wall– the iwan vault. Some decorative handwriting parts remained. Its designs revealed that they were written in Mamluk Thuluth script on a groundcover and they were put inside fields that are separated by decorative pictures.

[1] - Sultan Mesut türbesi probably dates back to a period before the 8th century AH / the 14th century CE, compared to the nearby shrines, such as Kadılar türbesi and Shagildi türbesi, and the Iwan is the oldest and Prince Bayezit had introduced the decorated entrance block. The entrance ornaments and its artistic characteristics are relatively similar to the ornaments of the Green Mosque of Iznik (1378 – 1392 CE). Besides, the twelve-pointed star dish, which exists inside the doorstep, has a similar one in teh entrance of Sultan Murad türbesi in Bursa (1451 CE).

[1] Amasya is one of the important Anatolia cities that is ruled by many empires, starting from the Danishmendids, led by Emir Ahmad Gazi, who managed to eliminate the Byzantine empire He established a Danishmend emirate until the Seljuks sultan Masud I (Dynasty: 510 - 551 AH / 1116 - 1156 CE) in 583 AH / 1143 CE was able to end the Danishmend dynasty, announced a Seljuk empire, and made Amasya as a city center. After that, the Mughal Ilkhanate, whose empire continued until 742 AH / 1341 CE, ruled Amasya. For forty five years, the Artinians were the only ones to rule the city. That period – in the history of Anatolia – was known as the Turkmen beyliks period, or the period of Beys. After that, Şehzade Bayezid Yıldırım managed to add Amasia to the lands of the Ottoman empire. Also, sultans of the Ottoman empire and their governors gave special importance to Amasya and it was an important Iqta’ to Şehzade, as it was then known as the city of governors, or the city of Şehzade.

[1] - The Danishmend emirate is considered on of the Turkish-Islamic emirates that shined inside Anatolia since the Danishmend ruled for about a century. Gümüştegin Ahmet bin Ali, commonly known as Danishmend, is teh founder of that emirate. A researcher thinks that the Danishmend title was originally related to his father, Danishmend al-Bukhari, one of the well-known Bukhara’s religious scholars. He was also called Danishmend or Dānishmand Aḥmad Ghāzī and the name ‘Ghāzī’ was added to Emir Aḥmad Dānishmand in recognition of his Islamic conquests inside Anatolia. He was nicknamed ‘Abi Ghāzī’ since the name of his eldest children is Ghāzī and succeeded him in ruling Sivas. However, the storied differed over when Danishmendids firstly appeared, what is their origin, and if they had extended their influence on some lands of Anatolia by the Great Seljuk Empire after the latter's cooperation in the Battle of Manzikert. Also, it is noteworthy to say that there was a kin relationship between the Danishmend and the Seljuks. It also acquired many countries by conquest after a conflict with the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum that also hoped to acquire Anatolia by conquest. Anyway, we can say that the Danishmend managed to establish a strong, independent emirate that included Sivas, Kayseri, Amasya, Niksar, among others.

[1] - It is the Mumyalık Katı, a bottom chamber where the deceased is buried. It is often raised to the height of the shrine’s base. This chamber could have a small entrance door, which is usually located beneath the entrance of the shrine's chamber or at another side of the shrine’s. Yet, the burial chamber could have no entrance doors at all. The chamber is a rectangular or square projected area that is covered with a pointed vault.

[1]- The purpose of building such chambers could be the fact that they were traditionally used by visitors in facilities of the Qarafa (i.e. the City of the Dead), such as making ceremonies and reciting the Qur'an.

They were found to decorate the bimaristan entrance of princess Gevher Nesibe in Kayseri, and at the entrance of Alâeddin Mosque in Niğde (620 AH / 1223 CE). They prevailed among different shapes on the Seljuks khans. For example, they adorned the entrance of the covered section in both Alay han and Sari han, the decorative ribbon around the spandrels of the entrance arch that covers Sultan han in Kayseri (plate 353), and the facades of the Köşk Masjid at its courtyard, represented as decorative ribbons.

[1]- Aşik li türbesi is located in Kastamonu, the north city of Anatolia. It follows the Eyvan Türbesi style, and it is similar to the samples under study (figure 16). The türbesi does not have any foundational texts, and its construction history is unknown. Yet, after comparing its architectural elements and features, it is likely to date back to the 7sth century AH / the 13th century CE.
