Özet:

Each civilization has reflected life and death in space in an architectural context differently. Throughout history, in the tradition of the Turks, there has always been a belief that after life ends, a new life will begin, just as it still does today. This belief has brought with it different spatial formations. This tradition, which has reached from the past to the present, has remained continuous and has reached the present through the changes in each other. Briefly referred to as funerary architecture, these are artistic and architectural works erected for important personalities of the time and became social property. This architecture is defined in our past as a burial mound (kurgan), then as a tomb, and today as a mausoleum. The scope of the study is an example of the reflections of our traditional tomb architecture. The subject of the study is located in the Senkoy on the old Milas-Aydin road in the province of Mugla, Milas District. It is the subject of the architectural spatial arrangement as it is one of the examples of classical early Ottoman funerary architecture built for Sheikh Bedrettin, who is considered a historical and spiritual leader. In addition, after the relief, restitution, and restoration projects of the grave in question were approved by the Muğla Regional Cultural Heritage Conservation Authority in 2013, the restoration was completed in 2015, its structural problems were resolved, and it was stabilized. This article aims to define the spatial arrangement and architectural language of the Sheikh Bedrettin Tomb, an Immovable Cultural Property, and to pass it on to future generations.
