The Mausoleum of Turkmen Emirs or Argavand Funerary Tower is a Qara Qoyunlu mausoleum constructed in 1413. It is located in the village of Argavand in the Ararat Province near the capital city Yerevan, Armenia. == Architecture ==
The Qara Qoyunlu mausoleum is decagonal in plan. Each of the monument's façades extend from the base of the tower until midway up the dome. Architecturally, it is divided into three sections; a lower section with an entry, a middle section with two windows and decorative elements, and an upper section consisting of a dome. The main body of the tower is constructed of tuff, while brick was used as the underlying material for the construction of the dome. Decorative elements include blue and turquoise glazed ceramic tile trim that is still visible along the upper portion of the tower, just below the base of the dome and above an inscription. Below the tile trim is some decorative molding, while a frieze in bas-relief encircles the top portion of the funerary tower is inscribed in Arabic and begins with a famous sura from the Quran. It then goes on to commemorate Emir Pir-Hussein, the son of Sa'ad. The inscription says:
A single portal leads into the mausoleum interior. There are two small rectangular windows that are positioned at the north and south façades, centered between the upper and lower portions of the tower.
