The “Tombs of the Kings” are situated close to the sea in the north western necropolis of Paphos. They owe their name to their size and splendor – some probably belonged to the Pafian aristocracy, and not because royalty was buried there. They are rock cut and date to the Hellenistic and early Roman periods. Some of them imitate the houses with the rooms (here the burial chambers) opening onto a peristyle atrium.
