    Study: Alexander the Great's Father Philip Found in Tomb
    A fresco painting of a hunt tops the facade of a tomb believed to belong to the ancient Greek King Philip II of Macedon, at Vergina museum, northern Greece, Oct. 7, 2014. Archaeologists believe one of the figures is Philip's son Alexander the Great, seated on a rearing horse in the center of the painting. According to archaeologist Angeliki Kottaridi, head of the archaeological sites of Vergina and Pella, Philip II was the first to succeed in uniting Greece's squabbling city-states. Philip effectively received a fractured state when he became king in 359 (B.C.), and, in 25 years, succeeded in creating the greatest power of his time through … substantial military, economic and social reforms, she told the AP. - Sputnik Africa
