This site
lies in the central part of the very extensive
necropolis of Rhodes, and is the only part
open to the public.
The most important features are the large
corner grave complex with the vaulted masonry
tombs, the cluster of vaulted tombs, also
of masonry, crowded with a monument with
triglyphs and metopes, and the tomb carved
into the rock with the monumental gate,
at the entrance to the archaeological site.
Most interesting of all, however, is the
underground quarry, with burial chambers
dug into its tunnels.
The Ephorate of Antiquities has done a
fine job of laying out the site in such
a way that visitors can acquire a better
understanding the funerary rituals.
