Studied are 294 graves of three types: graves with skeletons lying in a full straight position on the back, graves with bent skeletons turned to one of the sides and symbolic graves /cenotaphs/.

In Hall 6 is exhibited the whole inventory from some of the most significant graves. On both sides of the entrance are represented the graves with masks of human faces shaped out on spot and appliqued with gold plates. The rich variety of funeral utensils going along with the dead is best illustrated by two of the symbolic graves / No 4 and No 36/. In grave No 4 have been found two unique vessels where the typical for the time decoration of strongly stylized geometrical symbols is fulfilled in golden paint.
