Marina. Investigations of the preserved southern part indicated yet
another aboveground mausoleum consisting of a rectangular
banquet hall with benches (couches) to judge by the remains. Its
width was 6.90 m from east to west, while about 4.50 m of the
length has survived. Adjacent to the mausoleum on the south, on
its central axis, there is a slightly crooked corridor which is 1.35
