On the ridge above what was, until mid-1971, Robert College of Istanbul and is now the Bosphorus University, is a little cemetery containing, among others, a number of Bektashi tombs; it adjoins the site of a now vanished Bektashi tekke and is locally known as Evliyalar, ‘The Saints’. J. Kingsley Birge mentions and illustrates both cemetery and tekke in his The Bektashi Order of Dervishes. His illustration No. 23 “is of the plot where, according to tradition, Janissary-Bektashi skirmishers were buried after being killed in a raid just prior to the capture of Constantinople in 1453.” There is a marker on the plot, inscribed hādhā maqām shuhadā' sana 855, “This is the place of those who fell in 855/1451–2.”
