Tomb Of Mausoleum |
The Tomb Of Mausoleum The ruler of Haliarnassus King Mausolus wanted to build a tomb, but he died before its completion so his wife Artemisia completed the construction. The approximate height of this tomb was 42.6m and its top of the king and queen riding a horse driven chariot. It stood for centuries, but eventually fell into ruins. An Englishman brought the chariots wheel and fragment of the statue which are on display in British museum, london.
