View looking down on the cylindrical core of the mausoleum, where urns of Augustus and other members of the royal family were deposited.
Only the bottom third(!) of the lower portion of the "drum" is preserved—it used to be the highest portion of the mausoleum reading a height of 140 feet. It supported a large bronze statue of Augustus on the top that was visible from the outside to all.
