This tomb-marker was placed in the tomb of Buyanquli Khan at Bukhara in Uzbekistan in the 16th century. The deep, detailed carving that covers the surface came into fashion in Central Asia in the period 1400 to 1450. It may have been inspired by Chinese carved lacquer brought as diplomatic gifts in this period. It is possible, too, that the stone itself originally resembled jade. Buyanquli Khan was a Muslim descendant of the great Mongol conqueror Genghis Khan. For a time he was the puppet ruler of parts of Central Asia. He was assassinated by a local warlord in 1358 when he tried to assert his own authority. A magnificent domed mausoleum was erected over his grave.
