Originally the tomb of Rumi served not only as a tomb, but all as a religious center where the sufis would live in isolation (in some ways like a Christian monastery. The out buildings - like the kitchen we saw last week - have been preserved with exhibits.
Instruments for the sufi ceremony of dikhir:
Ney, the flutes used in the ceremony. This sort of flute has been used for 4500 years.
Kudum. Small drums.
A book. I failed to note the marker.
A calligrapher's set of pens. 19th Century A.D.
Calligraphy tools, 19th and 20th Century.
Mevlana prayers. A.D. 1880, Ottoman.
Bonus round: Dinner, dessert, and breakfast.
