Largest ancient tomb found of a prominent Macedonian

[Nikolaj]

Please do not use that term (I understood that you used it in a geographical sense only,but it still doesn't sound pleasent).
Macedonia,Republic of Macedonia,ROM...would all do.

Macedonia was split into three, Vardar, Pirin and Aegan Macedonia all belong to Macedonia, the one and only Macedonia there has ever been.

There's nothing wrong with it, but I agree Republic of Macedonia sounds better.

I personally don't like using anything apart from Macedonia, because Republic of Macedonia should have all our regions in it.

[George S.]

well said nikolaj and thats the truth.

You can see the amazing size of the tomb in the video released yesterday by Greece's culture ministry

I mean why would they build such a huge tomb if it was not meant for someone really important?Yes I am hinting Alexander.

Again the Greek media have started speculation after the release of the video that it has to be Alexander's

Absolutely stunning...It's massive!!!

Yes, very impressive.

Are you or your countrymen suggesting that Alexander's dead corpse was transferred to this tomb? Or do you think it is a tomb devoted to his memory, even though his corpse is not present?

Possibly for someone really important but most probably for someone with lots of money...highly unlikely that it's AtG...

I'm guessing it belongs to a general of Alexander the Great, maybe one of the successors of the empire.

From what I've seen thus far, they did find inscriptions, about 2-3.

One i re-call they stated it said "Mara"

Sorry guys... I literally can't find it. It was on one of the news articles I was reading. It's strange how it suddenly disappeared from their photos. I really should have saved it, but i'll try looking for it now.

What do you think this means?

Not sure man. George might be correct about it being the goddess Mara (from Latvian mythology I believe).

So there is currently no evidence of this apart from your testimony?

Mara also means death in Hindu, and it is a force similar to the grim reaper.

I have read news' reports that the tomb is believed to have been raided. Any definite confirmations?
