 The
tomb, from the time of Hadrian, was set up for a mixed form of
burial.
The walls are separated in two parts by a simple
horizontal moulding. Below the moulding there were arcosolia for
inhumation and above the moulding smaller niches for cremation;
four niches in the wall with the entrance door, five in the side-walls.
On the back-wall there is only one central niche with
a triangular tympanum in the top. Below the floor, which
no longer exists, three formae were brought to light.
Tomb 15 had a rich decoration. Time, however, did its destructive
work. From the once fine decoration of the niches small parts
are left.
