The tombs architecture is often embellished with details inspired by the houses of the living - steps, pillars, frames and false architraves. It is the larger central spaces that are decorated with bas-relief bulls' horns, false doors and niches, indicating that funerary rites were performed there. Remains of ritual meals or offerings have been found in large cellae, or at the entrance corridor. |
