Ricoh Tumuli
Ricoh Tumuli submitted by AlexHunger : Ricoh Tumulus This is the most decorated of the 4 Tumuli in front of the Ricoh Factory near Colmar France. There were serious digs when the factory was built in 1988, then the tumuli were landscaped to improve the plant scenery. Unfortunately the company permits no access to the Tumuli, so it is not possible to check the kerbstones which may or may not be original. (Vote or comment on this photo)
