Plan and section of the chamber tomb 6 of the Angelopoulos group at Volimidia. The tomb had a corridor (dromos) leading downwards, whereas the burial chamber contained two male burials, as well as a pile of pottery vessels and animal bones. The ritual rhyton found on top of the pile attests to the fact that the two men were probably hunters, worshipped at a later stage as heroes. .
