    Is it just me or does the media continue to insinuate that it is Alaxander's tomb for 99% of the article and then a small one sentence caveat at the end that it is unlikely that it is actually Alexander. I have read dozen of these since they have started excavation and always come away that "just maybe" even though there is no actually evidence to support that. Writers suffering from hopeful imagination writing disorder.

    I agree Crypto.... seems as if they are insinuating the mystery to lead the reader on.... then drop the bomb... Cheers, RickO

    Considering how many U.S. coins have designs inspired by ancient Greek coins,
    possibly there are some new design ideas for the U.S. Mint.
