TOMB 15 (continuation)Tek

The tomb, from the same time as 13 and 14, was set up for a mixed form of burial.
The walls are separated in two parts by a simple
horizontal moulding. Below the moulding were arcosolia for inhumation and above the moulding smaller niches for cremation: four niches in the wall with the entrance door, five in the side walls.
In the back wall there is only one central niche with
a triangular tympanum in the top. Below the floor, which
no longer exists, three formae were brought to light.
Tomb 15 had a rich decoration. Time, however, did its destructive
work. From the once fine decoration of the niches small parts are left.
