  • Thessaloniki, MacedoniaGreece

    Macedonia in Greece is rich in tombs with painted decorations on the inside and outside walls, and even on the sarcophagi, but this grave site has very well preserved frescos. TheTomb of Agios Athanasios is located under an enormous tumulus in the area ofThessaloniki, yet only 15 kilometers away from Pella. It has been looted but the small single chamber offers a unique example of richly decorated walls in surprisingly fresh colors. It dates from the last quarter of the fourth century BC, the Alexander-era.
