 Earlier this month, construction workers discovered a stunning sarcophagus that has been unopened for over 2,000 years. It was puzzling because it was unexpected, unmarked, and no clues as to what this represents was present. We as humans just can't help ourselves, put us in a room with a big red button that says do not push, and we will eventually push it out of curiosity. So is the case with the ancient sarcophagus. They just could not help themselves, so they have pried it open to see what was inside. And guess what? What we may have stumbled upon here is that in the remains of Alexander the Great. Alexander's body was stolen after his death, but scrolls do put the reburial at Alexandria. If this is confirmed then it is massive, bigger than the finding of Tutankhamun's tomb. This will be off the charts in terms of the history that goes with it. Alexander the Great was a king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon and a member of the Argyd dynasty. He was born in Pella in 356 BC and succeeded his father Philip II to the throne at the age of 20. He spent most of his ruling years on an unprecedented military campaign through Asia and Northeast Africa. And he created one of the largest empires of the ancient world by the age of 30. Stretching from Greece to northwestern India, he was undefeated in battle and is widely considered one of history's most successful military commanders. Alexander advanced on Egypt in later 332 BC where he was regarded as a liberator. He was pronounced son of the deity Aman at the oracle of Syioasis in the Libyan desert. Henceforth Alexander often referred to Zeus Aman as his true father and after his death currency depicted him adorned with the horns of a ram as a symbol of his divinity. During his stay in Egypt he founded Alexandria which would become the prosperous capital of the Ptolemaic kingdom after his death. Anyway guys we will keep you up to date with this information on the sarcophagus no doubt a major discovery and very mysterious if this turns out to be true it is incredible that these sorts of discoveries are happening constantly in the region and no doubt this discovery is being played down at the moment but we thought you would appreciate the quick update.
