The building stands on an artificial mound and measures 10.35 sq. m, with each of its four sides pierced by arched doorways. The dome with which it seems to have been originally covered has now disappeared, and only the four walls to the height of approx. 2.75 m now stand. At the east entrance of the tomb, there is a staircase leading to the roof. In the side walls, there are stone base pillars which apparently belonged to an upper storey that has now disappeared. |
