At the site of the ancient Pydna, the visible buildings are from the Byzantine era [1]. The remains of the ancient Polis from the Classical, Hellenistic and, possibly, pre-Greek period are lying, at least partly, under the Byzantine buildings [1]. The entire complex measures 320 m by 130 m [1]. The northern necropolis contains more than 3300 graves [1].
