  • Interior of  Octagonal Pavilion Tomb of the Sheikh Abdolsamad, Natanz, Iran.
    Abd-al-Samad-tomb-QJEL-01.jpg
  • Built in 1998 by Rchom Ju, Rchom Ek, Rchom Uek, Ksor Ul, and Ksor Ka-ro (Giarai Arap group), from Mrong Ngo village, Ia Ka commune, Chu Pa district, Gia Lai province. The most prominent decorations on the Giarai tomb are large wooden sculptures carved from tree trunks using adzes, cutlasses and knives. Carvings of sexually-explicit men and women and pregnant women symbolise fertility and birth. Other carvings of seated children (often placed at the four corners), animals, and everyday people are the 'servants' of the dead in the afterlife. Broken or inverted serving dishes, bottles, cups and trays, and wooden models of tools are placed inside the tomb to provide the deceased with the necessities they will need in the other world. The tomb's wooden roof is covered with a tightly plaited bamboo matting. Men join together to embellish this with delicate, curvilinear designs painted with natural red pigments. Crowning the roof is an intricately carved openwork panel depicting the rituals that accompany the tomb and its abandonment ceremony. Once the ceremony is concluded, the tomb will be abandoned to fall to pieces.

  • The Cotu Tomb is built for organising the second funeral and is for rich and high-ranking people in the Cotu society. The coffin is excavated and put on a big, elaborately carved, tree trunk. Carvings of water buffalo heads, which are blackened with colour made from wood charcoal, brown tuber and sugarcane juice, represent a buffalo sacrifice in the funeral and are also symbols of property. Carved figures, such as iguanas, tring birds, fern leaves, atut leaves or sadly sitting figures are common decorations in Cotu tombs. Each tomb can contain 4 or 5 bodies from within a family. The family grows rice, corn, bananas or sugar cane around the tomb as gifts for the dead.

  • Achaemenid Tombs at Naqsh-e Rustam, also referred to as the Necropolis  of the Persian crosses. The four tombs belonging to the Achaemenid kings are carved out of the rock face with the entrance to each tomb at the center of each cross, this opens onto to a small chamber, where the king lay in a sarcophagus. The horizontal beam of each of the tomb's facades is believed to be a replica of the entrance of the palace at Persepolis. One of the tombs is that of Darius I the Great (c. 522-486 BC). The other three tombs are believed to be those of Xerxes I (c. 486-465 BC), Artaxerxes I (c. 465-424 BC), and Darius II (c. 423-404 BC) respectively.
