Architectural features.
The general image of Melik Ajdar mausoleum is reminiscent of a parabola. The slopes between the surfaces of this parabola are designed with engraving. As a result, the general picture of the monument is reminiscent of migrant, Turkic-speaking peoples, which is widely spread among the nations and overall appearance of this object resembles the dwelling nomadic peoples.
There is almost no transit between the mausoleum and the outer space, and its body and cover. There are stone carvings above the tomb entrance door and on the left and right sides of the entrance door. In each of these three stone carvings, the bull is described. According to the graphic description of Bulatov, this "architect, who build the mausoleum benefited from the ellipse to draw the silhouette of the architectural monument."
Thus, in the architectural character of this monument, it seems that the form of traditional octagonal mausoleums has disappeared. 
Since there is no inscription on Melik Ajdar mausoleum, it is difficult to determine when it was built. I.Sheblikin, who saw the mausoleum and published it for the first time, noted that this building belongs to Seljuq period. It takes its history to the XII century or early XIII century.
