Dêhes

A large open court in the middle, with
2 story, transverse colonnades on either side,
and two large rooms at either end (see photo).

The colonnades were of the rectangular
decorated type - of fine columns each with panels
and window seats between the upper supports.

The sections at the other end of the villa were
divided into 2 rooms each, both opened upon
the colonnades and were connected by doorways.

Tomb. The rock cut tomb is situated a little
to the south of the town. It is entered
like the ordinary small tombs by a
narrow staircase, reducing at the bottom
where there is a low entrance with remains
of a groove and socket for rolling away the stone.
Within is a large flat roofed chamber
with two spacious arcosolia in each of there
walls. Each arch entrances two tombs -
one low sarcophagus in front and
a second above it at the back of the niche.
The side of the upper sarcophagus
