Verghina

 or Vergina

Archaeological site and ancient capital of Macedonia, northern Greece. Built on a site in use from the Stone Age, it was first called Balla. The palace of Palatista, partly destroyed by fire, dates from the reign of Antigonus III Doson (c. 263–221 BC). An Iron Age cemetery that dates from the 10th–7th centuries BC is near the palace. The 4th-century-BC royal tomb of Philip II of Macedon also is at Verghina.
