A wine-cup believed to belong to ancient Greek politician Pericles was discovered on Wednesday in an ancient tomb, in Kifisia, northern Athens, Greece. The ancient tomb came to light during excavations for the foundations of a new building. The wine-cup, measuring 8 centimeters in height, was found shattered into 12 pieces.

Greece tomb unearthed: Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, who visited the tightly-guarded site Tuesday, said the discovery 'is clearly extremely important' and dates between 325-300 B.C.

Now this is Greek tragedy. Greece’s Athex Composite GD, -12.78% tanked almost 13% Tuesday — the biggest drop for the index on record, according to FactSet. The renewed jitters came after the government, in a surprise move late Monday, said it would bring forward presidential elections to Dec. 17, potentially, setting the scene for snap elections in early 2015.

Greek voters are set to go to the polls after lawmakers failed to elect a new president. This has triggered a snap election, raising fears that the country's financial bailout could be placed in jeopardy.

Anti-austerity Syriza party has won Greece's general election, putting the country on a possible collision course with the EU over its massive bailout. With nearly 75% of the votes counted, Syriza is projected to win 149 seats, just two short of an absolute majority, though that number could change. Left-wing party leader Alexis Tsipras, who wants to renegotiate Greece's debt, said "the Greeks wrote history".

IT IS crunch time for Greece on Tuesday, when the cash-strapped country must repay €750million (£544million) to the eurozone or teeter on the brink of bankruptcy.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece is ready to accept a "viable and long-lasting" deal with lenders but not on "humiliating terms," Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras told his ruling Syriza party on Saturday. Syriza's first four months in power have been dominated by negotiations with the heavily indebted country's creditors, including the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.

The latest round of talks between Greek and EU officials in Brussels has failed to reach an agreement. A European Commission spokesman said while that progress was made on Sunday, "significant gaps" remained. Europe wants Greece to make spending cuts worth €2bn (£1.44bn), to secure a deal that will unlock bailout funds.

The Greek PM is offering the people a choice between bad and extremely bad. Capital controls are likely before a July 5 vote on the creditors’ terms. It’s not clear their offer will be on the table even if the people want it. If they don’t, the drachma and more misery lie ahead. By Hugo Dixon.

The decision to maintain - but not increase - emergency funding for the banks still leaves Greece facing an uncertain week.

Greek banks are to remain closed and capital controls will be imposed, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras says. Speaking after the European Central Bank (ECB) said it was not increasing emergency funding to Greek banks, Mr Tsipras said Greek deposits were safe. Greece is due to make a €1.6bn (£1.1bn) payment to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday - the same day that its current bailout expires.

The Syriza government in Greece just made the move of proposing a referendum on the creditors’ last (unacceptable) offer, so the Greek people can now choose a destiny from a set of unpleasant destinies to which history has brought them.
