摘要

Large stone sphinxes, women sculpted in marble, intricate mosaics and multicolored frescoes awaited archaeologists in August when they entered the largest tomb ever found in Greece. The scale of the tomb, which dates to the fourth century B.C., suggests it may belong to Roxane, wife of Alexander the Great, or their son, also called Alexander. Both were killed by political rivals after the" death of the Macedonian conqueror in 323 B.C. The burial complex, which doesn't appear to be looted, was found outside the ancient Macedonian city of Amphipolis in 2012, but its entrance wasn't located until August. Throughout autumn, stunning new finds emerged almost daily, including a large floor mosaic depicting Pluto's abduction of Persephone.
