Nearly 50 years ago, archaeologists lifted a major discovery during an excavation in the ancient city of Virginia in northern Greece, but they made a newly corrected mistake.

At that time, they found three royal tombs containing the remains of the family of Alexander the Great, dating back to the fourth century BC.

Researchers claim to have finally identified the remains of Alexander the Great’s father, Philip II of Macedon, after they were unable to identify him during this long period.

Alexander III, known as Alexander the Great, was king of Macedonia, a state in northern ancient Greece between 336 and 323 BC, and is considered one of the most successful military leaders in ancient history.

His father, Philip II of Macedon, ruled the Old Kingdom before him, from 359 BC until his assassination in 336 BC.
