The tomb featured both the cremation and inhumation
rite. The walls of the burial chamber have arcosolia in the lower
part and small niches for urns
around a large central niche in the upper part.
In later time, when inhumation became common, several small
niches in the right and back-wall had to make room for the burial
of bodies.
Of the original decorations little is left. We still find traces
in
the large niche on the left wall and in the small niches.
Professor Calza mentioned in his excavation report a peacock
with open fan-tail. This painting can't be seen anymore.
