Excavating the tomb over 2000 years old, discovering party pictures and nude painting on the wall

An ancient burial site dating to more than 2,000 years old has just been excavated in Italy. Archaeologists also discovered many paintings on the tomb wall, including the portrait of a naked man.

Recent archaeologists have unearthed a tomb in "the thousand-year city" Cumae, one of the former Greek colonies from the 8th century BC on the Italian continent. During the discovery of the grave, they discovered many paintings painted all over the wall in different colors. This is an important discovery in archeology because since the excavation in 2001, the paintings were often painted only in full red or white.

The most prominent feature of the whole picture is probably a portrait of a male servant holding a wine can and a vase of flowers. More specifically, this man was portrayed with no cloth covering his body, while at that time it was definitely invented from . life. The rest of the painting has been blurred by the devastation of time, but experts predict that this must be a sketch of a luxurious banquet of the upper class before. This new discovery is accompanied by furniture buried with the dead in the grave area, which makes archaeologists think that the painting must be dated at least 2,000 years ago.

In an effort to preserve the "cool" picture mentioned above, archaeological experts had to take it out of the ancient tomb area, along with the fragments of the sketch that were still scattered underground. After that, they would have to reconnect the painting to the same state as the puzzle, according to the French National Center for Scientific Research.

"This picture is an extremely valuable discovery for the archeology industry. This is a thousand-year opportunity to have an understanding of the ancient art scene that has not been possible for a long time!" - Center statement.
