This is what you find on top of the tomb. The museum is below.  Up until the 1980's, no one knew the tomb was there. It was just a hill.

Another Door and Small Decorations

Lots of silver and gold in the tombs, plus a new tomb door and a bit of the way the tombs were found.

Piecing Together

Lots of little pieces to put together to make up the sides of the scargophagi.





 

Phillip's Laurels

This wreath is magnificent.  It's got all these tiny leaves shaped from gold. The thing is breathtaking to look at in person.

Tomb Entrance

Turn another corner and there's a tomb entrance just standing there in the museum. And it's real.
