Tomb of the Reliefs, Etruscan tomb in Cerveteri, Italy.
The rectangular chamber of the Tomb of Reliefs extends 7.7 meters in length, 6.5 meters in width, and reaches 2.6 meters in height.
The underground tomb, discovered in 1847 within the Banditaccia Necropolis, belonged to the Matunas family during the fourth century BC.
The walls display stucco reliefs depicting military equipment, household items, and mythological figures, including representations of Cerberus and Typhon.
Visitors access the tomb through a monumental staircase leading to a main chamber containing thirteen burial niches arranged around a central platform.
The tomb features two Aeolian capital pillars supporting a double-sloping ceiling, with detailed reliefs showing everyday objects like wine jugs and agricultural tools.
