- Summary
- Olojeitu's Mausoleum has been the center of Jafar's village in Iran for 666 years, a continuing symbol of a proud heritage and traditional way of life. The tomb's unique blue tiles are being restored. Jafar's father is chief bricklayer and agrees to allow him to lay some tiles if he makes them himself. Jafar learns the age-old method of making clay tiles and applying the special blue glaze. Jafar places his tiles on the dome, contributing to the restoration of the tomb.
