==Pillar tombs==
[[Pillar tomb]]s are monumental graves, which typically feature a single, prominent pillar or column, often made of stone. A number of world cultures incorporated pillars into tomb structures. In the [[Ancient Greece|ancient Greek]] colony of [[Lycia]] in [[Anatolia]], one of these edifices is located at the tomb of [[Xanthos]]. In the town of [[Hannassa]] in southern [[Somalia]], ruins of houses with archways and [[courtyard]]s have also been found along with other pillar tombs, including a rare octagonal tomb.<ref name="Arotssc">{{cite journal|last1=Sanseverino|first1=Hilary Costa|title=Archaeological Remains on the Southern Somali Coast|journal=Azania: Archaeological Research in Africa|date=1983|volume=18|issue=1|pages=151–164|doi=10.1080/00672708309511319}}</ref>
