Van Lake Basin contains the richest artifacts in Anatolia in terms of Turkish period tombstones. Tombstones located in centers such as Ahlat, Erciş and Gevaş exhibit different characteristics than tombstones in other regions of Anatolia. The sizes of the tombstones, the variety of sarcophagus, especially the compositions with symbolic meaning such as architectural, herbal, geometric ornaments and oil lamps, were constantly used in the gravestone inventory in the basin with different types. Mollakâsım Village tombstones on the northern shore of Van Lake also contain examples that reflect the styles of these centers. Architectural elements such as arches and stalactite seen on the gravestones in the village, oil lamp motifs with symbolic meanings, floral ornaments in the form of curved branches and grapes, types of writing and formal and construction techniques share common features with other tombstones in the Van Lake Basin. There are two exclusion areas in Mollakâsım Village that can reach today. The first of these is in the graveyard around the Kara Şeyh Tomb in the village 6 qualified historical graves were found in this area. The area continues to be used as a cemetery today. The second burial area is in a garden in the northeast of the village. In this area, which is known as Şeyh Ali Cemetery, a total of 8 graves, including 3 sarcophagi for 5 witnesses, were identified and examined. Some of the gravestones are probably underground in the exclusion area. The gravestones examined have been damaged over time. With their ornamentation and formal features, the tombstones examined in both burial sites are dated to a wide range of dates such as the Middle Ages and the Ottoman period. Mollakâsım Village gravestones are previously unpublished pieces of the tradition that has continued for many years in the Van Lake Basin. These tombstones are important in terms of showing that the tombstone style in the region has been carried to the small village areas and has been adopted and used by the people for centuries
