mausoleum 陵墓，大型陵寝

来自希腊语Mausoleion,大型坟墓，来自Mausolos,小亚细亚古国Caria国王，在他死后，其王后Artemisia为他修建了大型的陵寝，并被评为古代世界七大奇迹之一，其名字就成为大型陵墓的代称。但其遗址不幸毁于公元三世纪的一次地震。

mausoleum: mausoleum: [16] The original mausoleum was a vast marble tomb (one of the seven wonders of the ancient world) erected in 353 BC for Mausolus, king of Caria in Asia Minor by his widow Artemisia. Its architect was Pythius, and its site was at Halicarnassus (now Bodrum in Turkey). Its Greek name was mausōleion, and it passed into English as a generic term for a ‘large tomb’ via Latin mausōlēum.
mausoleum (n.): "magnificent tomb," 1540s, from Latin mausoleum, from Greek Mausoleion, name of the massive marble tomb built 353 B.C.E. at Halicarnassus (Greek city in Asia Minor) for Mausolos, Persian satrap who made himself king of Caria. It was built by his wife (and sister), Artemisia. Counted among the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, it was destroyed by an earthquake in the Middle Ages. General sense of "any stately burial-place" is from c. 1600.
