A corbelled tomb is a generic term given to burial structures with corbelled roofs rather than simple slabs which generally denote an earlier type of construction.
In Europe they include the Mycenean tholos tomb type.

Famous quotes containing the word tomb:
“But thou, O King, I bid remember me, unwept, unburied,
Heap up mine arms, be tomb by sea-bord, and inscribed:
A man of no fortune, and with a name to come.”
—Ezra Pound (18851972)
