An unnamed Macedonian column built by the legendary conqueror Alexander the Great was visited many times by Soviet Special Forces during their own war of occupation. Five miles from the monument, one unit discovered the ancient remains of what is believed to be Hellenic Army barracks. Among other artifacts, there was a small bronze vase. Its inlaid pictures show: * (1) one man biting another; * (2) the victim lying on his deathbed, * (3) the victim rising up again; and back to * (1) biting another man.
