Data Mining: Vismara III

Summary (of Vismara's Summary) of Bosio's Account (p363):

• Bosio only explored for two hours and produced no precise plan.
• Bosio indicates two cubiculi, very small, and went to lengths to emphasize the modesty of the cemetery (remarks about the complete lack of sculpted marble).
  
• Notes that almost every burial had a menorah (7 branches) incised or painted in red in the [loculi sealing] cement.
• Tombs were sealed with bricks and plaster, on which was painted or inscribed an inscription.
  
• The tombs were carved in both the walls and the floors.
