Geocache Description:


This cache will bring you to somewhere you no doubt drive past repeatedly without realising that there's something interesting here.

Dating back to approx 525 BC, this magnificent tomb was located in 1989 and work continues to this day on the site. The information board that houses the cache details the history and specifics of the tomb, including the fact that there apear to have been at least five looting attempts; despite this, various artefacts have been found here including parts of a gold diadem which plausibly belong to one now exhibited in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

Mr P2 was lucky enough to visit inside the tomb in company with a local archeologist and we've added some of his photographs to give you a flavour of the interior.
