Ahmed Eflaki Dede narrated detailed and important information about Hz. Mevlana and Mevleviyeh with his book called "Menakibu'l-Arifin" (Anecdotes of Intellectuals).

In the excavations carried out by the Directory of Museum, the basements on the both sides of the southern facade of the tomb were revealed.
When the traces on the western surrounding walls of the tomb examined, it can be said to have connections with Mevlavi Lodge.
