AMPHIPOLIS, GREECE—Greece’s Culture Ministry has announced the discovery of skeletal remains in the elaborate late fourth-century B.C. tomb at Amphipolis. “The tomb in all probability belongs to a male and a general,” chief archaeologist Katerina Peristeri told BBC News. Tests on the bones may reveal the age and sex of the occupant, whose body had been placed in a wooden coffin held together with bronze and iron nails. The coffin was then buried some five feet below the floor of the tomb’s third chamber. Bone and glass fragments in the grave were probably decorations on the casket. Archaeologists found some of the remains scattered in the chamber, confirming that the tomb had been plundered.
