Theory 3: No estimate you're not going to make as the General Secretary of the Ministry of culture Lina Mendoni, pending the findings of research and analysis of DNA, which in the past had stated that it is prwimo to make assessments on whether the grave belongs the family of Alexander the great. According to the same is fair to spelled out all opinions, However the facts will come to light by the investigation.

Theory 4: On his grave Megalou Alexandrou or Ifaistiwna Why did the known for the interventions of the archaeologist Dorothy King, indicating that the cremation was common practice in Macedonia, and recalling that "historical sources indicate that only two corpses taricheythikan to return home (r.r.: Macedonia): Alexander the great and Hephaestion».

Theory 5: With his statements to the media the Petros Themelis doubts about whether the skeleton belongs to the official found dead, Noting that the burning was a key element of afirwismoy ( procedure for the nomination of the dead hero to whom are attributed and the analogue values) and so far has not found a partner of Alexander the great buried with the entire skeleton. All of the skeletons that have been identified as today was made. The archaeologist believes that however the dead found yesterday was epiphanes, It was not the central figure of the majestic mound that was created for the sake of.

Theory 6: The Professor of classical archaeology Stella Droygoy express reservations about whether this is afirwismenoy dead monument and stresses that the response will give the natural sciences.

If indeed given permission to study the DNA of tombs of Vergina, the comparison with the genetic material of Amphipolis is revealing. However you will need at least a semester for if no clear conclusions.

Amphipolis is not only the Hill Kasta, notes the chaplain Fr.

Amphipolis: How was the transfer of the skeleton of the deceased from the grave at the Museum

From what were the bones

Amphipolis: How was the transfer of the skeleton of the deceased from the grave at the Museum-From what were the bones

The discovery of the dead skeleton of Amphipolis on… last moment, have caused worldwide AWE and emotion, but until now had not known the hard work that had to been the excavation group when he was ahead in this new great discovery.

According to the newspaper "Eleftheros typos" bone transport, in order not to create any problem was a really difficult process. The delicate skeletal material should be treated with surgical moves not infected.

How they pulled out from the trench

The bones were removed from the basement to the third Chamber Tomb along with the soil as it does not have to touch human hands. This is because as stated above could be infected. Members of the excavation team who undertook this hard work wore surgical gloves and had taken all necessary precautions. Τα οστά μαζί με το χώμα τοποθετήθηκαν σε νάιλον και στη συνέχεια σε τελάρα και μέσα σε αυτά μεταφέρθηκαν στο αρχαιολογικό μουσείο της Αμφίπολης.

The soils in nylon and then in canvases

Free press mentions as cleaning them would not be there, αλλά από το εξιδεικευμένο εργαστήριο που θα αναλάβει την αποκρυπτογράφησή τους και την εξέταση DNA για να συνθέσουν το προφίλ του νεκρού.

The pathologist George Delaportas reported that when transferring skeletal remains should avoid any contact with this because it can contaminate with the DNA of those who carry. The standard technique is to time none surgical gloves to keep it as clean as possible by foreign elements ", reports.

In accordance with the said Culture Minister Costas Tasoylas speaking today at iefimerida.gr, the examination of the skeleton from the tomb of Amphipolis will take a group of Greek scientists.

Skopje, Andrew Chugg etc …

I think that Andrew Chugg scholarship is on the same level as Skopje's claims to be Macedonia. I realise that there are a lot of enthusiastic people reading up about Alexander, and normally I encourage that, but I will not bother from now on answering questions stemming from his “research” or research based on watching Oliver Stones Alexander movie. I also can't be bothered to do homework for the people leaving angry comments, so if they are so superior I suggest that they do their own research. The internet is useful, but there is a wonderful invention called a library which is far superior. Whilst 99% of people have been very kind and generous, life is far too short to worry about the one or two μαλάκες.

The work continues with the invocation of geophysical science

The future of the excavations on the Hill Kasta will judge, to a large extent, the Geophysics with the method of electrical resonance, that will be done by the scientific team of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, headed by Professor Gregory Tsoka.
