An Archaic Tomb Monument - - - (-------------------------------------------------) W <---(M)---> - - - - Several life-size clay figures of soldiers and horses, stand in a protecting nature along the curving eastern wall. The statues, obviously originally in vivid color, are arranged in long ranks and files, as if lined up for battle. The volume and contour of these figures are sharply realistic and set in repeated poses that have little or no variation, as if from a single mold. Centered in the middle of the room a superb example a preserved tomb.
