Interesting .... I am surprised, anyway, that the story of Philip-only has held up as long as it has... apparently the evidence is pretty solid that Tomb #2 & Tomb #3 have features not available in Philip's time. Sorta like excavating a supposed 18th Century tomb and the skeleton is wearing a wristwatch.
