Mausoleum A

Ghirza, Libya

4th century CE

This monument, which may also be called the tomb of Marchius Nasif and Marchia Mathlich, faces east, to the rising sun and more or less to the town itself. Like the other mausoleums, it is built on a high platform and surrounded by columns that are obviously inspired by classical styles (Ionian columns, in this case, combined with a Doric architrave).

 Mausoleum A is unique because it has two funeral rooms. On stylistic grounds and the evidence of ceramics, it can be dated to the early fourth century.

Above the door, which one can still reach by the stairs to the right, was a simple frieze, in which a Latin inscription was included. To the left and right of the inscription were depictions of two eagles carrying hares. They may represent the ascension to heaven of the soul. The inscription, now in the museum of Lepcis Magna, mentions the two deceased (Marchius Nasif and Marchia Mathlich), for whom their sons Marchius Nimira and Fydel have erected the monument.

I’m not a huge fan of Star Wars - particularly any of the movies they released after the original three - but the Wampas were always cool.  Great pulpy feel to this art as well, almost looks like it could be on a Men’s Adventure magazine published on Hoth.

“I Hunted the Wampa” - “Love Slaves of the Wampa Death Caves” - “I Watched Wampas Eat Me Alive”…anyone else have a title to add?
