The Central Archaeological Council has unaminously approved a study on stabilising, restoring and showcasing the Kasta Hill Monument at the Amphipolis archaeological site in Serres. The study was approved in a meeting held on Tuesday evening.

Talking to reporters during the presentation of a new temporary exhibition on the Emperor Hadrian at the National Archaeological Museum in Athens, Culture and Sports Minister Lydia Koniordou on Wednesday noted that the Kasta Tomb in Amphipolis will probably open to visitors in three years.

Ever since the discovery of the largest known Greek tomb was announced in August, archaeology buffs around the world have been eagerly awaiting each successive bit of news from the site.
