Monte del Grano, Ancient mausoleum in Tuscolano district, Rome, Italy

Monte del Grano exhibits a circular structure with a central round room and a long access tunnel leading into its core architectural design.

The mausoleum's outer covering underwent removal in the 14th century, followed by a tower construction in the 16th century that collapsed during the 20th century.

A decorated sarcophagus discovered within the tomb at Monte del Grano now resides in the Capitoline Museums, representing Roman funerary artistry.

The archaeological site integrates into Parco XVII Aprile 1944, providing visitors access to examine the remains of the third largest tumulus in Rome.

Clay stamps found inside the mausoleum suggest construction during Emperor Hadrian's era, contradicting earlier theories about Alexander Severus's tomb.
