    The wider archaeological site of Vergina comprises the Museum, the Palace, the city (ancient Greek term: «άστυ»), the acropolis and the surrounding area. The most important sight is the Royal Tombs in the ancient necropolis of Aigai. The district also houses the museum with the findings, covered with mud, as the tombs have been for so many years. The most important exhibit of the museum is the gold larnaca (funerary casket) adorned with the star of the Macedonian Dynasty which contained the bones of King Philip II and remnants of his golden wreath.
