Roman_Tomb_Containing_Six_Graves_Uncovered_in_Syria

Syria (Hama) – The Apamea Department of Archaeology uncovered a tomb containing six layered graves dating back to the Roman era north of Apamea Castle.

The tomb consists of two layers, each one containing three graves built using stone and painted with a thin layer of lime-based mortar, separated by plaster blocks measuring 200 by 60 cm.

The tomb, which was ransacked a long time ago by grave robbers, was found while digging to build foundations for a house.
