Roman period

A remarkable archaeological discovery has been made near the site of the ancient city of Tenea in the municipality of Corinth, Greece. The Greek Ministry of Culture recently announced the unearthing of an elaborate burial site that closely resembles Macedonian tombs from the Hellenistic period (323 to 30 BC). This monumental discovery provides valuable insights into burial practices, religious customs, and the historical significance of the region, beginning in Hellenistic times but extending into the first millennium AD and the Roman period as well. The ancient tomb exhibits a complex architectural design, featuring an asymmetrical “T”-shaped layout. It consists of an access corridor, measuring nine feet by four feet (2.80m by 1.20m), and a main burial chamber extending nine feet
