Abstract

In the early Archaic period, viewpoints to look all chambers were found in the front space open-air of the doorways to chambers. In the late Archaic tombs providing central hall-like spaces, visitors entered the hall-like spaces beyond the doorways in order to look at all chambers. The viewpoint was moved from the space open to sky into the hall-like space. In examples in the 6th century B.C., for instance a wide room with pillars at Tomb of the Capitals, the wide room was used for two different purposes, such as the chamber and the viewpoints, in transition between early and late Archaic tombs. In the 4th century B.C. Etruscan tombs, so-called Sotto Faciata, had the place for the viewpoints that was spatially independent of the chambers.
