The most interesting necropolis is tomb, with a large burial chamber and another with 12 loculi.
This necropolis, dating from the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC, was discovered in 1901. Tomb No 1 is the most interesting. It is accessed through a vestibule preceding an important burial chamber with a pink granite sarcophagus; on the walls and ceiling, polychrome geometric designs decorate the mausoleum, as well as trompe-l'oeil. The second burial chamber is pierced by 12 loculi. There are 4 other tombs in the necropolis of lesser interest. Unfortunately the place is difficult to find and badly maintained...
