The tomb of Bahā-ul-hakk at Multān, built between A. D. 1264 and 1286, still retains, or retained in 1882 when Cunningham wrote, 'some fairly preserved specimens of diaper ornament in glazed tiles,' which may or may not be contemporaneous with the building in its original form. The tomb was extensively rebuilt in the seventeenth century, and Mr. Marshall is of opinion that most of the tile-work belongs to that age.
