'tomb of 3 was made by him' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'sculpted penis outside hollow travertine' is the wordplay.
'sculpted' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'outside' is an insertion indicator (some letters go outside others).
'hollow' means to remove the middle letters (the word is hollowed out).
'travertine' with its middle removed is 'te'.
'penis' is an anagram of 'epsin'.
'epsin' enclosing 'te' is 'EPSTEIN'.
