| Valley to the West of Palmyra with about 2 Dozen tower type tombs and more underground rock cut tombs. The tombs largely served families, like our modern crypts, while some like that of the "Three Brothers" was a commercial funeral operation for persons unable to afford a large monument. The earliest tomb dates to about 35BC while later ones were built about to about the 2nd Century CE. |
