A recent study has identified the remains of Alexander the Great's father, Philip II of Macedon, in a Greek tomb using X-ray analysis.
Previously, archaeologists had mistakenly identified the tomb in Vergina, Greece.
The study, published in the Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, also confirmed that the three tombs contain Alexander's half-brother, King Philip III Arrhidaeus, and his teenage son, Alexander IV.
Vergina was the original capital of Macedonia, known as Aegae in ancient times.
