Archaeologists are holding their breath that a skeleton found in a mysterious, richly-decorated tomb from the time of Alexander the Great will solve the riddle of who ancient Greece's biggest burial mound was built for. Experts have finally found the body it was all built for.
The bones were found scattered around a wooden coffin in the third room of the vast mound near Amphipolis in northern Greece. Speculation is rife that it could be the remains of Roxana, Alexander's Persian wife, his mother Olympias, or one of his generals.
