Abstract

The gravestones found at Tire Museum, which are included in the catalogue in this article, date between 18th-20th centuries. Eight of twenty five stones are from 18th century, fourteen from 19th century, and 3 belong to the turn of the 20th century. Gravestones were made of marble. The heights of the stones are between 34-128 cm, their widths are between 25-64 cm, with a thicknesses of between 5-9 cm. All of the gravestones have inscriptions except only four of them. Inscriptions on twenty samples were laid diagonal, and one of them was laid in a linear system, eleven of gravestones are in good condition, ten in dirt and sixteen stones broken. Two of twenty five are male gravestones and 23 female. While scarping was used in making the gravestones, painting were used as the main decoration technique and inscriptions of stones were colored. Most of the inscriptions and decorations are relieved. Decoration subjects seen on gravestones are phytomorphic, geometric, objective, calligraphic and figurative. Most of the floral decorations are naturalistic. Acanthus, cypress, flowers, vases, fruit dishes and other floral compositions where used altogether. Architectural composition of the mosques, tombs and houses are dated between 18th and 19th centuries
