Tomb of Alexander the Great: Found?

I have been reading about this Amphipolis discovery for years, despite the statement in this article that the discovery took place last summer. They had first said years ago that they believed it was the tomb of Alexander, then the story went quiet for a number of years. It began popping up again within the past few months, but they had backed off from the assertion that it was Alexander's tomb and they were at that time stating variously that it was the tomb of a relative or a general of Alexander. You may have known that it has been believed that Alexander had been buried at Alexandria, but they never produced any remains. Without any further adieu, here is the story with link:

"A giant tomb found in Greece's Macedonia region over the summer contains more than simply sphinxes and a mosaic. Researchers say bones found at the ancient Amphipolis site are from at least five people—including a newborn and a 60-year-old woman, the country's Culture Ministry said in a statement today.

According to the AP and Reuters, the remains of the woman and baby were found with bones from two men ages 35 to 45, as well as those of a fifth person who had been cremated.

Although initial reports speculated that Alexander the Great may have been among the occupants of the tomb (dating between 325BC and 300BC, with Alexander's death in 323BC), some scientists wonder if the bones belong to Alexander cronies—perhaps one of his generals, his wife Roxana, or even his mom, Olympias (though AFP reports the ministry last month pooh-poohed the Olympias theory.)
