Also called 'Yanyatır'; a figure from Baghdad regarded as the pir of the Yanyatır lodge of the Tahtacı Alevis. Based on two manuscripts in the Adana Museum, the tomb dates to c. 1129-1132/1717-1720. The small square domed masonry shrine, a registered monument, stands beneath an ancient oak in Durhasandede village, Ceyhan. (Sources: Culture Portal, Adana Cultural Inventory; Zekiye Çağımlar.)
