A mysterious, black, granite sarcophagus discovered in Alexandria, Egypt, dating to a time after Alexander the Great conquered the area in 332 B.C., has been opened.
There was speculation at the time the discovery was announced earlier this month that the massive coffin held the remains of Alexander the Great and that opening the sealed and foreboding-looking box would unleash a curse. Neither seem to be true … unless stinky sewage causes some sort of torment.
Along with the sewage, archaeologists found the remains of three skeletons inside the sarcophagus.
