    The tower is - as seen from Rome - on the left side of the Via Appia Antica; it dates back to the 12th century. and was built to control the surrounding area. A large mound from the 1st century BC. BC served as the basis for the construction of the tower with the typical construction technique of black and white bands made of flint, peperino, marble and travertine flakes, which made the building visible even from long distances.
    So it's not a tomb like so many other buildings along the Via Appia Antica
