You're standing at the Kasta mound, close to the ancient city of Amphipolis in northern Greece. It might look like just a big hill, but this is the largest ancient burial mound ever found in Greece. It's about thirty metres high, and filling it took around 250,000 cubic metres of sand. It completely dwarfs the famous tomb of Philip the Second, father of Alexander the Great.
