Roman Tomb of Silistra

The Roman Tomb of Silistra is an Ancient Roman burial tomb in the town of Silistra in northeastern Bulgaria [1]. The Roman Tomb is the best-preserved architectural monument of the Ancient Roman city of Durostorum [1]. The Roman Tomb was coincidentally discovered in 1942 in the southern outskirts of Silistra, a major town in Southern Dobruja on the banks of the Lower Danube [1]. The stone tomb features a single burial chamber and measures 3.30 by 2.60 metres [1]. It has a west–east orientation, with the entrance on the east wall and a semi-cylindrical brick vault [1]. It is located amidst the ruins of a necropolis from Late Antiquity which included other similar structures [1].
