Y algunas de las hipótesis que se van barajando:
Professor of Classical Archaeology believes that the tomb is Roman and not Macedonian
Mrs Olga Palagia, professor of Classical Archaeology in the University of Athens, believes that the tomb is Roman and not Macedonian.
She states that the Caryatids were the favorite symbol of the Roman Emperor Augustus and the monument could be honouring the dead from the Battle of Philippi (Macedonia, Greece), in 42 BC. In the battle of Philippi the forces of Mark Antony and Octavian were against the forces of Julius Caesar's assassins, Brutus and Cassius.
The winners of the battle (Mark Antony and Octavian) could have buried their dead in the Amphipolis Tomb, according to this professor.
The opinion of Mr Michalis Tiverios
Michalis Tiverios, professor of Classical Archaeology, believes that only an important General could lie in the Amphipolis Tomb. Among the Generals of those times, he would distinguish Nearchus, the navarch of Alexander the Great and his childhood friend. Mr Tiverios states that Nearchus had strong connections with Amphipolis, because this is where he was forced to go in exile by Philip II, along with other friends of Alexander.
