A figure whose tomb is in the village of Baskil district (formerly Şeyh Hasan, today Tabanbükü) in Elazığ, regarded as the pir of the 'Şeyh Hasan/Şeyh Ahmed Dedeler' (Tavil) hearth (ocak) of the Alevi-Bektashi tradition. His identity is archivally documented by an endowment entry for the 'zawiya of Shaykh Ahmad al-Tawil' in the Malatya cadastral register of 967 AH/1560, which establishes him as a verified historical ocak dede. When the original Şeyh Hasan village was submerged under the Karakaya Dam reservoir in 1987, the tomb and associated heritage were moved to Tabanbükü. It is recorded in neutral language in keeping with Rule #9's principle of equal respect for all sects and orders.
