H.F.B. Lynch, "Armenia. Travels and Studies" (1901)
Erzurum
Bayburt
"Erzerum and its plain from the South" (fig. 164)
"Armenian maidens" (fig. 168)
Lynch saw these curious tomb stones, in the form of sheep, in the village of Varzahan (renamed Uğrak, in the central district of Bayburt province).
Similar stones are quite common in the Dersim (Tunceli) area.
