The tomb takes its name from the name Solon in the inscription on the door lintel of the main chamber. It is also known as the Lion's Temple due to its lion reliefs. The Tomb of Himmet Baba is situated on the Kümbet Rocks. It is dated to the 13th century due to its plan, construction technique and materials used.
