Round, profiled funerary column, seen and documented in September 2004 on the side of the street in Pazar Yeri (earlier Delipazar, also called Künüklük or Dazgır, ca. 1 km SW of Boubon near the cemetery of Elmalı Yurt). The stone is very worn and blotched with blue paint. Despite returning in 2005 for better light, and despite a good squeeze, the text appears impossible to read.

Height: ca. 120 cm; diameter: ca 50 cm (profile); letters: 2-2.5 cm.
