Hogarth explored part of an immense brick structure under the mound of Kom al-Dikka, which may have been part of the Paneum, the Mausolea, or a Roman fortress.
Imperial tombs and mausolea are cultural properties; but they are guarded and administered by the Imperial Household Agency ( IHA ), which is the government department responsible for all matters relating to the Emperor and his family.
The famous Royal tombs, also called the Neo- Sumerian Mausolea, located about convert south-east of the Great Ziggurat in the corner of the wall that surrounds the city, are nearly totally cleared.
The construction of such lavish mausolea was banned by decree in 317 BC, following which only small columns or inscribed square marble blocks were permitted as grave stones.
