Archaeology News Network: Marble door found in third chamber at Amphipolis.
“The collapse of the marble door was caused either by Bulgarian artillery shells in 1913 or by an earthquake of magnitude 6.8 on the Richter scale that occurred in the sixth century AD or possibly from earthquakes that struck the area in the 19th century. At the same time, however, we cannot rule out the likelihood that the damage was caused by looters. Only further excavation will reveal this.”
