Özet

The monumental conspicuous grave steles with sculptures and carvings are made like social and religious buildings along with the social rights and property acquiring right given to non-Muslims in 19th century. These monuments present the reflections of the social wishes and needs of the families, skills of the craftsmen, the emergence of the monumental sculpture artisans as an occupation in this century, the iconographic demands of the sects and grave steles and sculptures seen in Europe in the same century.
