Khairete,
this was just posted over on another forum......
Archaeologists working at Dion have uncovered a 2,600 metre wall
The wall is believed to have been started by Cassander the rotten, in an attempt to emulate the structures built by Alexander.

I wonder if this was during Alexander's lifetime or before or after he did his supposed dirty deeds on his family....?

There are a few people from a forum trying to arrange one for later this year....getting prices together at the moment....if I could only manage it....Eurobus fares are cheap enough but I won't be able to walk by the time I get to Macedonia....lol
Last time Zeus was giving us a welcome (I think :? ) and I don't think I have ever prayed so much. Lightning to the left of us, stones rolling to the right of us onwards out of the storm rode the Volksvagen camper.....lol
I think I recognised the battlefield where I sat on the hillside and daydreamed last time ....Chareonea....!
