Archaeologists have long speculated about who might be buried in the Amphipolis tomb.

The tomb included three funeral chambers, but archaeologists recently discovered a secret fourth chamber that was apparently an "underground vault" beneath the third chamber. Now, the team is a lot closer to finding out just who the tomb belonged to — they just found a skeleton in the secret chamber, after months of excavations.
Experts believe the tomb was home to a Macedonian royal, possibly Olympias, the mother of Alexander the Great.
