Safavid delegates with Qurans in their hands. Şecâ‘atnâme, 147b. tr|Safevi delegasyonu sağ allta kaçar beyleri ellerinde Quran . Ortadaki Asaf? paşa Kaykı? bey etrafın frenk adamları "Kabala Castle: When describing the ruined Kabala Castle, Asafi describes it as derelict, he says, "There was no life inside." The walls of the ruined castle are cracked, resembling the teeth of an old man. Its interior is littered with debris, and each tower resembles an owl's nest. With its walls destroyed and only its gates remaining, this structure resembles a sheep pen rather than a castle (see Figure 6)." p.425
