考古學家在希臘發現了一座由雄偉獅身人面像守護的古墓


希臘考古學家發現了一座有趣的古墓，與在埃及發現的類似，由兩個巨大的獅身人面像把守，還有壁畫裝飾，並被500公尺長的大理石雕刻城牆所包圍。這座古蹟據信可以溯到約公元前300年，是希臘迄今發現的最大的古墓，可能埋葬著重要的歷史人物。

目前計劃在一月份進入古墓！

總理Antonis Samaras在周二參訪這個景點時表示，”可以肯定的是，我們正站在驚人的發現之前。馬其頓土地持續給我們帶來驚喜，揭示其獨特的寶藏。”

這個地點位於希臘安菲波利斯城(Amphipolis)的卡斯塔山丘(Kasta Hill)上，於2012年開始挖掘，起初尚不清楚確認要挖掘甚麼，直到今日才真相大白。

專家認為，應該曾有安菲波利斯之獅矗立在這座古墓之上。這個地點由希臘軍隊於1912年發現，是公元前4世紀保存最完好的古蹟之一。現在古墓位於Strymonas 河的老橋旁。

當地媒體已經開始猜測古墓的主人是誰。亞歷山大大帝於公元前323年死於神秘的情況，無人知道他被葬在哪裡，也因此他是一個首要的潛在候選人。

該墓也可能屬於另一個馬其頓王室。這裡是馬其頓時期三位著名將領的出生地，尼爾克斯(Nearchus)、塔索斯島(Thasos)的阿德洛屯厄斯（Androsthenes）、以及亞歷山大的密友拉俄墨冬(Laomedon)。

我們期待考古學家有更多的發現！

Archaeologists In Greece Have Discovered An Ancient Tomb Guarded By Majestic Sphinxes


Greek archaeologists have made an interesting find - an ancient tomb, similar to ones found in Egypt, guarded by two enormous sphinxes, adorned with frescoed walls, and surrounded by a 500-meter-long wall carved from marble. The monument, believed to date back to about 300 BC, is the largest such tomb ever found in Greece and could belong to an important historical figure.

Plans are underway to enter the tomb in January![/size=5]

“It is certain that we stand before an especially significant finding. The land of Macedonia continues to move and surprise us, revealing its unique treasures," Prime Minister Antonis Samaras said on Tuesday during a visit to the site.

Excavations at the site, located on Kasta Hill, Amphipolis, first began in 2012. It wasn't clear until now what exactly it was that they were excavating.

Experts believe that the now removed Lion of Amphipolis may have stood above a tomb located in the burial site. The monument was found in 1912 by the Greek Army and is one of the best preserved monuments from the 4th century BC. It now stands next to an old bridge over the Strymonas River.

Local media has been speculating wildly about who may rest in the tomb. Alexander the Great died in 323 BC under mysterious circumstances and no one knows where he's buried. He's a prime potential candidate.

The tomb may also belong to another Macedonian royal. It was the birthplace of three very famous admirals from the Macedonian period, Nearchus, Androsthenes of Thasos, and Laomedon, who was a close friend of Alexander.
