The Kasta Tomb monument of Amphipolis can be visited by specific groups of people as of Tuesday, nine years after its discovery.
Scientists, researchers, educators, tour operators and people from the local administration of the regional unit of Serres, divided into groups of five people and accompanied by a guard or archaeologist, are being given the opportunity to visit the interior of the Kasta Tomb and admire part of its decoration.
According to Culture Minister Lina Mendoni, who visited the area and inspected the progress of the works, the visitors will get a satisfactory view of the monument, as they will be able to see the marble material that has been reassembled, the sphinxes at the entrance and the preserved Caryatids. Also, these first visitors will be able to view from a certain distance the burial trench, which is impressive in its size and construction.
