Post from Bektashi Meydan
" In the meydan (" sacred space" ) of the Bektashi Sufi order are 12 " posts" ( Turkish meaning usually a skin, normally a sheepskin, but in some cases leopard or gazelle skins. They represent the controlled animal self of the dervishes or Babas (Sheikhs) - only initiated muhip (lovers), dervishes, or Babas / Anas (" fathers" or " mothers" ) could enter the meydan. Each post has a certain position, is related to a particular saint of the order, and also has a duty associated with it. " Date: 2012
