AT 18:00 Greece time, mrs Persiteri will announce the Amphipolis excavation results
Here is the link for the live announcement in Greek (of course) and you will most likely be able to watch the ceramics and the scethces.

EDIT
If I am hearing this right live right now (the sound is not that good!!!!) the architect Lefatzis is showing us inscriptions with the monogram of Hephaestion that prove that the entire tomb complex was made after Alexander the Great's order to dedicate it to Hephaestion

If only they'll find an image, a long inscription with historical news about Hephaistion!
