Tombs A tomb is a chamber that can be built below and under ground. This is because a tomb is just like a grave except it is a different religion of burying people. The tombs hold the remains of people just like graves.
Tombs are one of the most oldest forms of burying a person.
Tombs are believe to be a house of death, this is because, the people put things that belong to the person, or if they are important to the person. The prehistoric practice of burying the deceased under the house is probably led to one of the earliest forms of tombs. The chamber is covered in a mold of earth. Another form of a tomb is a chamber cut out of a living rock, as for example in the Valley Of Kings in Egypt. In Egypt the tombs were made, then they would mummify the body of a king or a Pharaoh.
