notes:
The ancestors of ancient Greeks living in territory of Asia Minor, created the fine tombs cut from soft limestone. This kind of ancient art has received especial development in the ancient state Lycia located at southern coast of modern Turkey. Inhabitants of Lycia trusted, that souls died move from tombs and turn to winged essences, therefore they frequently placed tombs along coast or at tops of rocks. As well as many tombs of the western Turkey, a tomb of Lycia were kept due to that were in places where the leg of the person seldom went.

Today a landscape of all territory of Lycia усеян these delightful funeral monuments. On last calculations, not less than 1085 samples of such monuments among which the most widespread were the tombs cut from a stone here were revealed.
