Tumuli

Tumuli are ancient burial sites characterized by piled earth and stones forming a mound over graves. They were created by various civilizations worldwide to honor and commemorate the dead, often indicating social status or special individuals. These structures can range from small humps to large, elaborate mounds covering multiple burials. Tumuli provide valuable insights into past cultures, rituals, and beliefs, and many remain important archaeological sites that help us understand human history and ancient practices related to death and remembrance.
