Genesis 48 records the death of Rachel:
But as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died beside me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem). -Genesis 48:7 (NKJV)
Since Rachel was Jacob’s favorite wife it seems strange to me that she was just buried beside the road and not placed in a tomb.
