In
this grave some traces of the decoration have preserved.
In the niche in the left wall was
a painting of two peacocks facing each other with a small green
column
between them.
The lower part of the niche was
painted with rose-buds
(Ostia inv. nr. 10828a-b).
During the excavations several
fragments of the cover of a marble
sarcophagus have been found
between the rubble and a relief
of earthenware which represented the profession of the tomb-owner,
a salesman of drapery.
Tomb 33 dates from the end of the second/beginning of the third
century AD.
