Cephalonia finds

Greek archaeologists have uncovered an intact tomb and what was likely a Roman theater on the Ionian Sea island of Cephalonia, the culture ministry announced Wednesday.

The findings include a space of about 26 feet by 20 feet with a vaulted tomb, a stone coffin and two funeral vases, among other items, the ministry said. . .

The vases in the tomb are made of glass and ceramic. There were also gold rings and earrings, copper keys and coins.
