The corpus comprises nine inscriptions in total; all of them are monumental inscriptions. The inscription covers mainly from year 1645 to 1892 AD. The material on which they are inscribed is white and grayish fine- and coarse grained marble of high quality, and bronze, meticulously sculpted. In most cases, the decorative patterns of the main side consist of the equitant shallow cartouches, which accommodate embossed inscriptions usually in a relief technique. The type of script most frequently used is the basīt thulus and taclīk script
