They are usually cut into a cliff or sloping rock face, but may go downward in fairly flat ground. It was a common form of burial for the wealthy in ancient times in several parts of the world.

  • Una tomba excavada a la roca, també anomenada sovint tomba rupestre, habitualment consisteix en una cova creada artificialment i pensada per a ser emprada com a tomba. L'egiptòleg britànic Aidan Dodson les defineix com a tombes tallades a la roca a les quals no se'ls ha afegit cap mena de superestructura d'obra destacable. Les tombes excavades a la roca formen part d'una llarga tradició de construccions rupestres que es troben sobretot a l'Àsia i a la conca del Mediterrani. S'excaven tombes a la roca en diverses cultures i civilitzacions des del neolític. A la zona central de la Mediterrània, les tombes excavades a la roca són un element característic del calcolític.

  • Das Felsengrab, Felskammergrab oder Felsgrab ist eine künstlich angelegte Höhle, die ursprünglich zu Begräbniszwecken benutzt wurde. Der Brite Aidan Dodson definiert das Felsgrab als in den Felsen eingeschnittene Gräber, die keinen nennenswerten gemauerten Überbau aufweisen. Felsengräber sind seit der Jungsteinzeit in verschiedenen Kulturen anzutreffen. Im zentralen Mittelmeergebiet sind Felsengräber vor allem für die Kupferzeit typisch. (de)
  • Una tumba excavada en la roca es una cámara funeraria que se excava en una formación rocosa existente de origen natural, por lo que es un tipo de arquitectura excavada en la roca. Por lo general, se cortan en un acantilado o una pared de roca inclinada, pero pueden descender desde un terreno bastante plano. Era una forma común de entierro para los ricos en la antigüedad en varias partes del mundo. (es)
