Corinthian tomb

The Corinthian Tomb is defined by the severe weathering of its sandstone façade, which stands in contrast to the clear, intricate Greek Corinthian-style capitals carved into its upper level. Built between forty and seventy CE during the reign of the Nabataean King Malichus II, this monumental structure is one of the four main mausoleums located along the western slope of Jabal al-Khubtha. It is recognized by the distinct three-level design of its exterior, which features eight half-columns on the lowest level and six columns above, mirroring elements seen in the nearby Treasury.
