[edit]

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to select a representative tomb to illustrate this article? I thought about The Great Pyramid of Giza or the Taj Mahal, but they're not exactly representative. I thought about some political figure like Abraham Lincoln, but non-American's might not really care. I thought about some war hero, but there's always the other side. I sort of like the idea of the Panthéon in Paris because of the variety of honorees, but the Pantheon itself isn't a tomb so much as a building housing tombs. I think the tomb of a philosopher, poet, or mathematician would be pretty cool. Suggestions? Rklawton 20:04, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lenin's mausoleum is one of the most celebrated, and is probably the most visited, historically speaking. Charles Matthews 21:31, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If "most visited" is the criteria, then the pyramids would win. All things considered, I would prefer Lincoln's tomb to Lenin's. Rklawton 15:33, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
