The inscription of this tomb in the Hunat neighbourhood of Melikgazi district has not survived; it is thought to belong to Cafer Bey, father of Alâeddin Eretna, and to date from the second quarter of the 14th century. Set on a square base, the tomb has a cylindrical body faced with neatly cut stone, its entrance reached by two flights of steps up to a landing.
