Game On: Take a Virtual Tour of Greece’s Amphipolis Tomb

Armchair archaeologists have been buzzing over a mysterious 2,300-year-old tomb at Amphipolis in northern Greece, which was apparently built for an important personage from the time of Alexander the Great. Now you can take a virtual stroll through Amphipolis’ tomb chambers, or twist and turn an online 3-D model.

So far, Greek archaeologists have unearthed a pair of battered marble sphinxes that guarded the underground tomb’s entrance and two bigger-than-life statues of Caryatid maidens guarding another passageway.
