100 tombes
In this section we shall look at the 100 tombs on the west side of the Via Severiana. They are numbered from 1 to 100. Clicking on the word "map" on each page brings you back to the overall map of the necropolis and to the 100 buttons corresponding with the numbered tombs. Use the scroll bar below the map to see all of it. Placing the cursor on the tomb number on each page shows you the relevant part of the map.
