TOMB 33 (continuation)

In this grave some traces of the decoration have been 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 rosebuds
(Ostia, inv. nrs. 10828a-b).
During the excavations several
fragments of the cover of a marble
sarcophagus have been found
between the rubble, and a terracotta relief 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.
