Examples include those at Xemxija in Malta which are Neolithic and ''Dayeh-va-dokhtar'' tombs in Fars province of Iran . They were also employed by the Ancient Egyptians . The late Pre-Classic and early Classic Era cultures of west Mexico (what are now the states of Colima , Nayarit , and Jalisco ) used these kind of tombs and much of what little is known about these cultures is known from art objects found in these tombs. As a result, these early west Mexican cultures are often referred to as the "shaft-and-chamber culture". Compare Shaft Tomb |
