Ruweiha funerary temple 8698.jpg

The temple-like building (on some pictures next to a larger building) is a burial temple in the southeast of the city. The gable and architrave are decorated with toothed frieze strips, which continue around the building as a dividing line between roof and walls; Acanthus leaves form the capital of the corner pilaster, the design of the column's capital is reminiscent of a Corinthian capital from a distance.
