re you curious about the history and mystery of Alexander the Great and his family? Do you want to learn how archaeologists and scientists identified the bones of his father, brother, and son in a Greek tomb? If so, this video is for you!
In this video, we will take you on a journey to the Great Tumulus of Vergina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that contains the royal tombs of the kings of Macedon. We will show you the amazing artifacts and paintings that were found inside the tombs, and explain how they reveal the life and death of the people who ruled the ancient world.
We will also tell you the fascinating story of how a new study used osteological analyses, macrophotography, X-rays, and anatomical dissections to confirm the identity of the occupants of the three tombs. You will discover how the study solved the mystery of who was buried in each tomb, and how it shed new light on the complex and violent history of the successors of Alexander the Great.

What's important to say that they knew they are there. I visited the royal tombs in Vergina, the final resting place of Alexander the Great's family and all of them were identified in the past already by that archeologist who discovered the tombs in 80s. This must just be some sort of final and official confirmation based on recent extended study of the remains that were identified in 80s.

If someone reads all the ancient informations , he will realize that Alexander the Great is the most important person ever lived here. Son of Zeus, the only non Egyptian who became immendiately Pharoe, Siwa desert, Indian Kaukasus fighting some strange creatures etc. With all the above, the tomb of Alexander will never been found and if so, the body won't be there.....

Full arab. Aristotle will tell you this they stole the quran from a pharoah mummies chest. That black ethiopian pharoah held that religion tight to his chest in a sarcophagus. Because.....AL'LAT was worshipped before allah. AL-UZZA the black ethiopian woman. Kushite blacks ruled arabia by the billion. Arabs were decapitated first. Sharia Law was upon the arab. The cow was worshipped and that cow represents black womens breasts. Hindu kushites took this religion into india now india today you cannot slaughter a cow or you die immediately.

As one of the Greatest Leaders, and the Builder of the Origanal Greatest Repository of the Written History of the World, and Scientific Studies, and Written Prose, Poetry, and Legends... Hes worth knowing about and Honoring ... the tradgedy for his library in Alexandria in Egypt was its burning by Cesare Augustus after the capture and deaths of Cleopatra and Marc Anthony.. A TRUE WORKD TREASURE WAS LOST... Cleopatra had the scribes copy every book that land on their shores before Ceasar Augustus destruyed it.

Everything I have read about the destruction of the Library of Alexandria states (1) that it wasn't a single destructive event, but rather a piecemeal destruction over many centuries and (2) that Augustus was NOT involved. Keep in the mind that the Library was almost certainly not a single building, but probably consisted of a main building, some adjacent buildings, smaller satellite libraries scattered around the city, and one or more warehouses for storing scrolls not kept in the other library buildings. The main destructive events include: -- A fire in 48 BC that destroyed a warehouse used by the Library. This occurred during Julius Caesar's invasion of Egypt. Caesar (great-uncle of Augustus) and his troops were besieged, so he ordered his soldiers to set fire to some nearby Egyptian ships. The fire then spread to the docks and to the warehouse, which was reported to hold about 40,000 scrolls, or at most about 10% of the Library's holding. BTW, the Emperor Claudius (ruled 41-54 AD) built an addition to the Library, so it certainly existed after Julius Caesar and after Augustus. -- In 272 AD, the Emperor Aurelian invaded Egypt during the Palmyrene War and his troops destroyed most of that part of the city that held the main Library. Apparently, the main Library was destroyed at this time, but it may have been a partial destruction. -- In 297 AD, during the Emperor Diocletian's siege of Alexandria, the rest of the main Library appears to have been destroyed. -- However, these earlier destructions cannot have been all that complete because in 642 AD, Amr ibn al-As and his Muslim army apparently destroyed whatever was left of the Library of Alexandria. These ancient reports may or may not be accurate, but they are the best we have.

@@skysurfer5cva Thank you for that information... I seem to recall Cleopatra was horrified at the Barbaric destruction of the libraries and ordered that a y ship coming into port be searched for scrolls, which were then seized so they could be copied and attempt to recoup the losses from the fires... That's about the only addition info I've been able to gleen...Thanks for what you contributed to the history and demise of Alexander the Greats One Truely Great Achievement.. let's face it anyone with enough charisma can talk a bunch of lower intellect into fighting a war with them...

It’s the tombs of his father, son and half-brother. Alexander’s tomb was known to have been in Egypt, first in Memphis, then in Alexandria. The tomb was most likely in the Royal Quadrant, which sank in the 5th century. Too many claimed to have seen the tomb, including Roman emperors, for it to have been anywhere else. (I could be wrong, of course! 😁)

His tomb was revered in ancient times and was a pilgrimage site. It is more than just an ancient grave. His father's tomb was discovered intact in the 1960s. Discovering the tomb would confirm or disprove what information has come down to us over the centuries.
