| Description |
The interior arrangement of the tomb is austere and of impressive proportions. The entrance to the interior or the tomb was a simple opening sealed by six courses of pores blocks. The narrow antechamber - length 2 m., width 4.08, height 5.14 m - with light yellow at the top of the walls and black at the bottom, divided by relief bands (cornices) of black and white color, is decorated by a painted composition that covers the entire ceiling, and is perhaps unique at the present. It consists of six alternating palmettes and large water-lilies with huge tendrils. One has the impression that this entire colorful floral complex is floating on a light blue ground recalling the surface of a lake. Macedonian Tomb 325 – 300 BC Lefkadia, Macedonia, Greece The entrance to the interior or the tomb was a simple opening sealed by six courses of pores blocks. Antechamber and main chamber |
