İn the tomb that we have analysed, 84 gravestones have been found. When we seperate the numbers of stones in the tomb as head and foot stone, when we make the typology, 163 gravestones have arisen 43 of these are male head stones and 27 of these are female stones and 51 of them are foot stones 38 of these 163 grave stones are newly built head stones, 4 of them have not been identified . By considering this situation in order to make more healthy research, we have grouped the grave stones in to 3 groups as female head stones, male head stones and foot stones. The grave stones in the tomb mostly beleng to the 19th century. The grave stones whose the typology has been done, also have been made the typology according to the form characteristics. The male grave stones are grouped in to 4 according to form types. İn itself, it is grouped in to 2 according to the epigraph. We deemed more suitable to mention the head sections on male head a stoneds in another heading. According to typology that has been made of five different headings have been observed. 8 kavuk, 15 sarık, 5 fes, 4 corollas, were used as heading on male headings. When the typology of female grave stones were made, differently from the male grave stones there is a differentiation based on headings. When look at the foot stones, we face with 5 typed gremping. When we analyse these grave stones, most of the decorations are on foot stones. Plantal, geometric and object drawn decorations are seen.
