Eight female instructors working at the Tokat Maturation Institute completed the puşide (grave covering) prepared for the sarcophagus in the Danişment Melik Ahmet Gazi Mausoleum in Tokat's Niksar district in 2.5 years. Since 2017, the Tokat Maturation Institute has been part of the Puşide Project, carried out under the patronage of the Presidency of Türkiye. The production of the puşide, a Persian word meaning 'cover,' which is placed over graves and used to cover wooden, marble, stone, or ceramic sarcophagi, began 2.5 years ago under the coordination of the Tokat Governorship for the tomb of Melik Ahmet Danişmend Gazi, the founder of the Danişmend dynasty in Niksar. Ahmet Turan Teker, Deputy Director of the Tokat Maturation Institute, stated that an eight-person team worked on the puşide. Explaining the dedication of the team, Teker said: Emphasizing that the puşide was completed with great care over 2.5 years and expressing pride in his colleagues, Teker added: Teker concluded by stating that the puşide will be placed on the sarcophagus on Kadir Gecesi (Night of Decree), which will be observed on March 26.
