More accurate location 35.95268N 14.38324E.

There are true cut-out baths inside and several chambers which are cut out of the natural sandstone. It might be that it is a re-used earlier tomb. There are a number of unusual features, such as something that looks like a chimney cut into the ceiling, but there no visible murals.
