    I don't have any links right now and won't be able to look for any until later today, but the on-line version of the German magazine Spiegel is reporting that Greek archaeologists have located what they believe is the citadel of Ajax described by Strabo and an Athenian inscription and also hinted at by Sophocles.

    It is dated to the 13th to 12th centuries BC and covers some 750 square meters. Finds include coins and bronze items from Cyprus and Anatolia.

    German story here.
