Type: article

Abstract: his research has systematised and analysed the images (attempts to replicate) of architectural forms typical of madrasah (“madrasah-ness”) on the tombstones from the mediaeval Crimea (Kyrk-Azizler, Solkhat, and so on). An attempt has been made to search for synchronous analogues in regions with similar ethno-confessional structure. The analyses also addresses the relationship between the status of persons associated with scholarship and education, or alleged students or teachers of madrasah, and the type of their tombstones.
