How magnificent. Such contributions to history. I always wanted to be an Egyptologist, but being from an extremely poor family, it was out of the question. I did, however, manage to live at the foot of the Giza pyramids for a year. The most exciting year of my 80 years
Absolutely amazing and captivating! The journey to find the lost tomb of Alexander the Great not only brings new knowledge but also ignites curiosity and a passion for exploring history. Thank you, National Geographic, for bringing us closer to one of humanity’s greatest mysteries. Can’t wait to see the next discoveries!
Incredible coverage worthy as always of NatGeo, mesmerizing story and an unvetted archeological struggle by Dr Papakostas! On a personal note and as a Greek American, I’m so very proud and honored by Pepi’s tenacity and the gallant of her intellect. Because of the unyielding spirit of scientists like Pepi, the tomb of Alexander the Great has already been found on so many people’s hearts. Bravo madame!
Truly god blessed them all fm those who build the tomb and the dig team. Without anyone of them we wont be able to study about these amazing history around the world.
Alexander was a lead from the front commander. So his body was covered in battle wounds. He never had time to heal properly. I think he was in constant pain, exhausted, full of infections. I wouldn't be surprised if an infection finally ended his pain.
If you didn't actually find the lost tomb of Alexander the Great in the video, don't title it "Finding the Lost Tomb of Alexander the Great". Natgeo, you're supposed to be better than this.
Ι visited Vergina in Macedonia, Greece where Alexander's father's tomb lies and I remember tearing up reading the inscriptions from over 2.000 ago and being able to understand some of what was written on them. I speak Greek though.
It's very interesting to watch the search for the mysterious tomb of Alexander the Great! Research like this not only opens up historical insight, but also reminds us how vast the richness of ancient cultures and civilizations still holds many mysteries. Kudos to the team who are trying to dig up traces of the past to enrich our understanding of the world. Hopefully this research will continue and bring valuable new discoveries for all of us!
I remember in the 80s Geraldo Rivera opening Al Capone's vault live on TV after 2 hrs of non stop commercials and hype to find only a couple of old bottles. Thank you for helping me relive my youth. LoL
Ya it was advertised for a month in the 80s everyone was excited it was like the Superbowl in attendance watching commercials every 6-7 mins. Then he found well a couple of bottles. America felt ripped off. Why many hated him.
Pepi if you are reading comments please dont give up the search. I m greek myself, not a archeologist but i read a lot about alexander and try myself to pinpoint the tomb. After reading Strabo, Arrianus, Droysen, polubios and more i assume that his grave is either A. Destroyed, because the Romans after winning in the battle of Pydna 168 bc against Perseus the last king of Macedonia, they needed to destroy everything that gave life-form-unity to this formitable adversary, the grave was the symbol and needed to be exterminated, after all Carthago delenda est. B. Alexanders grave is at the siwa oase because there was the oracle of Zeus Ammon. Alexander visited that place with his ''bodyguard'' Ptolemy i soter they got lost in the dessert and two snakes guided them to the oracle.He was fascinated by the place and when hephastion died he asked this oracle and not the Dion in macedonia if hephastion must be honored as god or hero. Very importand is that Ptolemy snatched the body en route to Aiges and took it to his satrapy-Egypt. C. its burried in alexandria of egypt under some massive structure of today because julius caeser and some arab scolar whos name i dont remember supposedly visited it. Strabo gives many good infos like pepi is saying in this vid.
A very determined and inspired woman, in search for heritage and legend that is probably signed in her DNA. A fairly nice watch. Let's hope that in Part II, NG sends a reporter who CAN imagine carrying a body a mere 90 feet *down* a winding stone stairway.

Illyrian tribes used greek language also so what he was macedonian Philip and Alexander had Greek city States under occupation the greeks referred to Macedonians as barbarians as for Slavs do you really believe slavs came at height of eastern roman empire and settled without battle there are 250 roman cities behind danube and rome had 600.000 soldiers furthermore would illyro romanized populace accepted slavs in such huge numbers without batlle 😂 story about balkan peoples being Slavs is a joke
@@vladimirboskovic When they first arrived in the Balkans, a series of conflicts began between the Byzantine Romans and the Southern Slavs. Many battles were fought by many different leaders, but the most important conflict was the one between Emepror Basil II Porphyrogenitus .

@@vladimirboskovic there is for sure mixture with local populations.

In Greece there are documented battles in Boeotia and in later on in Patra. Also keep in mind that Byzantine empire practically left the area after the war with Persians , it helped definitely larger migration to settle.
As Josh Gates showed, there is a very strong case that the body thought to be St. Mark the Evangelist in Venice, is really that of Alexander the Great.
Cleopatra's, Alexander's, and all the Ptolemais' tombs would most likely never be found, Zahi Hawass, and he is not the only one, taking in consideration old maps, have confirmed the tombs where in the area that sunk in the sea during the earthquakes followed by the famous tsunami that did much damage to the city. The chances of anyone finding ever a burial are close to zero. It is sad but it is also true.
history is a systematic record of past time . she has tried her best i am reading in class six an i have read about alexander and it was interesting. his invention open the trade route between India and Europe. i learned more from this video.
One of the reasons I decided against my early-childhood dream of being an archaeologist was my severe claustrophobia. Someone could be like, hey, the Holy Grail is right down this tunnel, and I'd be like...not it, sorry.
This special is several years old and there has been no new news from this dig. Unfortunately I think we will never get answers as to his final resting place.
@@kskisser I guess you haven’t seen Destination Unknown’s two part episode on Alexander the Great. There is new, very convincing evidence as to the location of Alexander.
I love how they theatrically turned off the actual lights to walk around the Alexandrian tombs @22 mins, walking around with portable lights. Cool place, its very well light. You don't need flashlights.
NO.....YOUR WRONG THERE.... NOT ONE OF THE GREATEST........ BUT THE GREATEST GENERAL........ GREATEST CONQUERER..... GREATEST LEADER WHO NOT ONLY WON ONE BATTLE AFTER BATTLE .....BUT.... ALEXANDER THE GREATEST...... HAD THE BRAIN POWER TO REALIZE TO BUILD EMPIRE.... THOUGH LETTING THE PEOPLE YOU CONQUERERED GO ON LIVING THEIR WAYS.....BUT BELONGING AND SERVING....

The people that are buried there didn't want to be dug up. The tombs are not lost....they were hidden and should remain that way. Let the dead be left alone.
Just wait for the Show to repeat itself 5 more times before saying exactly what it was explaining at the very beginning. Such stupid narration, it's awful
It's in Venice, Alexander's body is actually "St Mark". Just google Alexander and St Mark and you will get all the info reqd. TOO many coincidences, both physical and historical, point to the fact. Though understandably the Catholic church will NEVER allow an examination of ANY kind, even if it is non-invasive.
If the great generals tomb still exists and still resembles proof that it was his final resting place it would certainly be an amazing discovery.. Would it make sense that he was taken to his birth place in Pella??
damit!!! tine team spoiled me with actually seeing the geophisical surveys from the resistivity, magnetometry, and such!!! lol i wanted to see the print outs
THere are history books of people visiting his tomb, way after his burial. And even at that time, he wasn't in his original tomb. So, it was most likely destroyed if there were people visiting his body that was no longer it the tomb.
All of their tools and methods seem so primitive in this part of the world. It was filmed in 2019, not like it was in the 1920's when there weren't better tools as we now have. I guess I don't understand why these poor men were working under such poor conditions, and a rope for him to search into a water filled tunnel with who knows what type of gases could have been in there. He should have had gas detectors, etc...just way better equipment for such an important dig.
@@cassieoz1702 They have the habit of constructing a mosque over anything non-Islamic. If there is an old mosque, there surely is something Kaffir below it. Ask the Indians.
@Gerryjournal accient maps of the city always signaled where his tomb was, in which intersections, you can search it in the web. Also, writen scrips from the visits from Roman emperors and scholars mentioned it was an underground tomb to preserve better the remains as it was done by Egyptian tradition for emperors/gods.
She uses the word "Volunteers for precautions". I hear guinea pigs, to sacrifice in case of dangers. Where can I sign up? I AM not afraid to die. Even though I do not want to die. To me, it's about the adventure, not the destination.
I am shocked to see the lack of safety measure in excavation and accessing confined space. A rope tied to the waist is pointless because aphyxiation can kill within a few minutes, before the body can be retrieved, not to mention risk of body getting stuck in tight space. Breathing apparatus? Gas detector? Structural support to improve soil stability? There are health and safety standards to working underground and there is absolutely no reason not to abide with them! Check with any professional/qualified engineer! Safety first!

As long as Miss Archaeologist calls this Macedonian culture Greek culture and Alexander calls him Greek, she will never find his tomb. I would recommend you to read the real history of MACEDONIA and not the imposed one! Greece as Greece in antiquity is nowhere mentioned!
ive read some story like Siege of gaza and he went to conquer persia then he disappear in todays egypt he conquer massive land in 12 years which is wild
I'm no archeologist, but my spidey sense is thinking it was on the spot where St. Mark's Cathedral in Alexandria sits. Let's just say I did a Google search & it said people have believed it to be at an intersection near that church. I saw there was a Catholic Church nearby on Google maps & said hmm. 🤔 When researching the church, it was believed to have been St. Mark's resting place before his body was taken to Italy at one point. The Catholic Church was notorious for taking over ancient Greek, Roman, & Egyptian buildings & turning them into churches; so it wouldn't surprise me. The building that's there now is not the original building as it's been destroyed & rebuilt numerous times over the centuries. But the fact that other people are wondering if the body believed to be St. Mark could be Alexander The Great and the history of the Catholic Church taking over ancient buildings tells me I'm on the right track. Just a hunch. Sometimes people overanalyze things when they're obsessed with a task when the answer could be a simple one. Just sayin' Not sure what they would find now, though. But if the church has a basement or catacombs under it...also a Catholic practice in Europe, who knows. 🤷♀️
Imagine what other civilization and cities and likely unknown cultures, are right below our feet everywhere across the globe! If this city is buried under 20-30feet... I bet there was other structures possibly underneath that itself! Maybe another 20-30 feet more.
@28:37 the modern building, very tall and huge, most probably the excavation for the foundations was deeper than the one made by this greek archeologist, and even worse, those builders probably destroyed the tomb of alexander, if it was there, because their methods of excavation are brutal and do not check for any artefacts. The archeologist should check the records of the city if someone reported artefacts during that construction.
How magnificent. Such contributions to history. I always wanted to be an Egyptologist, but being from an extremely poor family, it was out of the question. I did, however, manage to live at the foot of the Giza pyramids for a year. The most exciting year of my 80 years

The tomb was destroyed under Byzantine emperor Theodosius, who banned pagan shrines and temples. Alexander was considered a god.
@28:37 the modern building, very tall and huge, most probably the excavation for the foundations was deeper than the one made by this greek archeologist, and even worse, those builders probably destroyed the tomb of alexander, if it was there, because their methods of excavation are brutal and do not check for any artefacts. The archeologist should check the records of the city if someone reported artefacts during that construction.
fascinating!
Ancient evidence of grave robbers in the water filled tunnel.
To uncover the tomb of Alexander The Great, only the archeologist with great mind and determination can find this .
