Viggen Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Archaeologists have unearthed 40 sarcophagi in what was once the sacred Phoenician burial grounds of Birgi, near the ancient colony of Motya. The tombs were discovered by chance by a group of construction workers excavating the foundations of a house close to the westernmost tip of Sicily near Marsala, culture officials said. via Ansa.it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
