No mystery at all, really: It’s Amphipolis. The tomb was built by (slaves of) the Amazons.

The remains are Xena; Gabrielle; Joxer The Mighty; and Autolycus, the King of Thieves.

Only uncertainty is the identity of the newborn.

when archaeologists announced the discovery of a vast tomb guarded by two sphinxes and circled by a 497-metre marble wall.


It’s guarded by two sphinxes and it’s got a great big marble wall around it. The archaeologists just open it up wondering what’s in there that the’d go through that much trouble to secure it? Way to go dudes!

These tombs are amazing...hope to go visit them. I was lucky enough to go see Vergina, Philip II’s tomb last summer...awe inspiring.
