Αμφίπολη, Τύμβος Καστά - Amphipolis, Kasta Tomb

On an interview to the “Sunday Ethnos” Newspaper, the American archaeologist Dorothy King, insists that the Amphipolis monument that captured the admiration of the whole world since summer 2014,  insists on the view that the impressive monument was constructed by order of the great commander and eventually became the tomb of Hephaestion.

Ready to offer her assistance the Greek archaeological wonder, if requested, as Dorothy King stated, talking to the Greek Newspaper, expressing at the same time her confidence that archaeologists in Amphipolis “will continue to make great discoveries.”

The ancient skeleton that has been found in the tomb, has rekindled the debates among researchers and experts for the tombs’ resident identity, who was buried in the tomb of Amphipolis

Dorthy King noted that  “… at the moment, all findings that have been published in conjunction with the colossal size and the unusual decor of Amphipolis tomb, do show for me, that the construction of the tomb began by the order of Alexander and was completed by his successors.”

According to the famous archaeologist, “whether the tomb was for the Macedonian commander Alexander, or for Hephaistion is under discussion, but because we know from written history that the construction of the tomb of Hephaestion was canceled, it is likely to have been constructed for Alexander himself.”

“I suspect,” she adds, “that there are more discoveries to come to light. From the sources, however, we come down to the fact that there are only two candidates, based on the dates, and the terms of social status: Hephaestion and Alexander.”

“All sources agree that the body of Alexander moved to Alexandria, so the only one who remains is Hephaestion,” the archaeologist said.

Dorothy King also, on her interview to the Greek Newspaper, stressed that “Amphipolis is in Macedonia, Vergina is in Macedonia and Macedonia is in Greece. To suggest otherwise is as ridiculous as to advocate that Jesus went to America.”

But the Greek Archaeologists don’t seem to follow Dorothy’s King scientific approach, nor her inspirational passion for the traces of Alexander the Great to be tracked in the Amphipolis wonder.

“It is hard to determine whether the dead of Amphipolis has some relationship with the royal family of Macedonia, since the comparison with the DNA of Philip will not be easy. The genetic material found in the tombs of Vergina is quite overworked,” said Lina Mendoni who explained that scientists from the University have requested a comparison of the Amphipolis with that of Philip II detected in Vergina, noting however that this is extremely difficult .As she explained, the bones of Philip found in Vergina are burnt , but most importantly, those findings that came to light 50 years ago were not handled properly as to reserve the anthropological material. Many hands of the modern man have touched the bones, Mendoni said as to tranfer them to multiple modern laboratories.

But this, ironically, was the big loss of modern archaeology. Talking on an interview the senior professor of Archaelogy Konstantinos Kargakos, since the early days of the Amphipolis discovery had said that in Vergna

Only the examination and scientific study findings will provide answers about the identity of the Amphipolis resident, estimating that it would take about eight months to get answers.

Finally, the General Secretary of Culture Ministry has estimated that it will take time for the monument’s readiness to open for visitors

Greece ‘s General Secretary of Culture Lina Mendoni on November 14, said that excavation works at the Amphipolis tomb came to an end and the skeleton of the buried has been transferred to a laboratory in order to determine his or her identity.

Speaking to Mega TV, Mendoni said, “Excavations in the monument area have come to an end since they have reached the natural ground.” However, she said,…

I here now predict they will find ancient alien technology in Amphipolis excavations.
