The answer is The Tomb of the Unknowns (it has never officially been named) at Arlington National Cemetery (for fallen American soldiers in certain modern wars who could not be identified) in Arlington, Virginia.
Here is a picture of the amphitheater. Note the national treasures buried in the cornerstone.
And what do we read over the west entrance? "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori."
This also echoes Paul's Mars' Hill sermon in Acts 17 where he speaks of the altar "To the Unknown God."
