TOMB 90 (continuation)

The burial chamber is organized as a columbarium with a central aedicula, flanked by small niches, alongside every wall. The back wall is completely occupied by a large arch.
The grave was richly decorated with stucco above a cornice
imitating marble.

In the rectangular niches we see flying swans
with flowers and ribbons in their beaks. In the tympanum of
the aedicula to the right of the entrance a flying eagle is depicted.
The ceiling too has painted scenes, including lion hunts.

On the floor, made of white mosaic, were benches occupying
the space beneath the niches alongside the left and back wall.
These too were decorated.
