marble tomb
Carved burial chamber
A marble tomb is a burial structure made of or faced with marble, typically suggesting permanence, wealth, or honor.
Marble tombs range from simple grave markers to elaborate mausoleums housing the remains of royalty, saints, or the wealthy.
The material's durability and association with classical antiquity makes it a traditional choice for commemorating the dead: The emperor's marble tomb drew visitors for centuries.
