GREECE-HISTORY-CULTURE-ARCHEOLOGY
A handout picture released on October 21, 2014 by the Greek Culture Ministry shows a head of a sphinx discovered in the largest tomb ever unearthed in Amphipolis, in the Macedonian region of northern Greece. Discovered in the fourth chamber of a burial mound at the site in the northern region of Macedonia, the sphinx is more than half-a-meter (18 inches) high and was marked by "traces of red", according to a statement from the ministry. Archaeologists unearthed the missing head of one of the two sphinxes found guarding the entrance of an ancient tomb in Greece's northeast, as the diggers made their way into the monument's inner chambers, the culture ministry said on October 21.
