Grave marker
Explanation:
Basluk je u ovom slucaju, kao sto kolega Skrebic kaze, nagrobno obiljezje, a ne tkanina.
A evo sta kaze i najmeritorniji izvor, Rjecnik turcizama u srpskohrvatskom jeziku Abdulaha Skaljica : basluk - muslimanski nadgrobni spomenik (uspravan istesan kamen ili siljak, dascica pobodena vise glave na grobu umrlog).
Buduci da se radi o pogrebnoj opremi (a ne spomeniku) u Vasem tekstu je rijec o toj zasiljenoj dasci koja se stavlja da obiljezi grob - najcesce privremeno - do (eventualnog) podizanja spomenika tj. nisana.
Zato bih se odlucila radije za grave marker, a ne tombstone, jer tombstone vise asocira na (pravi) spomenik ili nadgrobnu plocu.

Dodatak: odnosno, mislim da je samo neka marama za glavu ili tako nesto, ali nije bitno.

disagree  Anira: basluk, ondnosno baslik, osim nagrobnog spomenika, moze biti jos i dio konjske opreme ili kapa, ali nikako platno u koje se zamotava mrtvac
