Leader of Amphipolis dig insists on tomb date
The archaeologist leading the dig at Ancient Amphipolis insists that the tomb at Kasta Hill she and her colleagues are searching was built in the late 4th century BC.
“I firmly believe that this monument is from the last quarter of the 4th century BC and we have all the proof for this,” said Katerina Peristeri on Thursday.
“It is futile for other archaeologists to come out and talk about it being from the Roman era or anything else.”
Archaeologists entered the third chamber of the tomb, which has been linked to Alexander the Great, last Friday.
