In 338 BCE Philip of Macedon and his teen-aged son Alexander defeated the allied Greek forces led by the Athenians and Thebans. Recent rediscovery of records from the 19th century excavations site resulted in a new multinational project to analyze the battle
from multiple perspectives, examining previously unstudied materials. This lecture presents the results of these new analyses, focusing primarily on the skeletons of Theban soldiers from the Lion Monument mass grave at Chaironeia and the cremated remains of
the Macedonians buried under a mound on the battlefield. It is the only battle from Greek antiquity in which the remains of the opposing forces have been studied, providing a unique perspective on different fighting techniques and injuries.</div>
