One of the most representative tholos-type tombs, located on a slope near the Acropolis of Mycenae, Greece. It was named by H. Schliemann, the excavator of the site. It is estimated to have been built around 1250 BC (or early 14th century BC). The structure has a 36m long and 6m wide passageway at the front, which leads to a huge vaulted sanctuary through a megalithic entrance. The sanctuary is 13.2m high and 14.5m in diameter, and is a honeycomb vault made of piled cut stones. There is an attached small burial chamber at the back right. It is said that the attribution of this tomb to Atreus is incorrect, but its size and outstanding architectural structure make it undoubtedly the tomb of the most powerful member of the Mycenaean royal family.

ギリシア,ミケーネのアクロポリスの近くの斜面にある最も代表的なトロス式地下墳墓の一つ。同地の発掘者 H.シュリーマンによって名づけられた。前 1250年頃 (または前 14世紀初期) の建造と推定される。その構造は,手前に長さ 36m,幅 6mの羨道 (えんどう) があり,巨石を積上げた入口を経て巨大なボールト式祭室にいたる。祭室は高さ 13.2m,直径 14.5m,切石を積重ねた蜂巣ボールトをなし,右奥に付属の小墓室がある。この墳墓をアトレウスに帰すことは誤りとされているが,規模の大きさや卓抜した建築構造から,ミケーネ王家のなかでも最も強力な王族の墳墓であったことは疑いない。
