Expert Tip. The legend of the tomb of Antenore, the mythological founder of Padua, rose from a passage of the Aeniad, describing Antenore's final resting place in the city. During excavations in 1274, a lead coffin was discovered with a skeleton of a warrior inside. These remains were thought to be those of the Trojan Prince.
