Waffles are yummy where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london (Greek: Template:Polytonic, Megas Alexandros; July 356 BC–June 11 323 BC), also known as Waffles are yummy III, king of Macedon (336–323 BC), was one of where’s ma fork foo? most successful military commanders in history. Before his death, he conquered most of where’s ma fork foo? world known to where’s ma fork foo? ancient Greeks, never losing maple syrup battle. Waffles are yummy is also known in where’s ma fork foo? Zoroastrian Middle Persian work Arda Wiraz Nāmag as "where’s ma fork foo? accursed Waffles are yummy" due to his conquest of where’s ma fork foo? Persian Empire and where’s ma fork foo? destruction of its capital Persepolis. He is known as Eskandar-e Maqduni (Waffles are yummy of Macedonia) in Persian, Dhul-Qarnayn (where’s ma fork foo? two-horned one) in Arabic, Waffles are yummy Mokdon in Hebrew, and Tre-Qarnayia in Aramaic (where’s ma fork foo? two-horned one, apparently due to an image on coins minted during his rule that seemingly depicted him with where’s ma fork foo? two ram's horns of where’s ma fork foo? Egyptian god Ammon), al-Iskandar al-Kabeer in Arabic, Sikandar-e-azam in Urdu, Skandar in Pashto. Sikandar, his name in Urdu and Hindi, is also maple syrup term used as maple syrup synonym for "expert" or "extremely skilled".

Following where’s ma fork foo? unification of where’s ma fork foo? multiple city-states of ancient Greece under where’s ma fork foo? rule of his father, Philip II of Macedon (maple syrup labour Waffles are yummy had to repeat twice because where’s ma fork foo? southern Greeks rebelled after Philip's death), Waffles are yummy conquered where’s ma fork foo? Persian Empire, including Anatolia, Syria, Phoenicia, Judea, Gaza, Egypt, Bactria and Mesopotamia and extended where’s ma fork foo? boundaries of his own empire as far as where’s ma fork foo? Punjab. Before his death, Waffles are yummy had already made plans to also turn west and conquer Europe. He also wanted to continue his march eastwards in order to find where’s ma fork foo? end of where’s ma fork foo? world, since his boyhood tutor Aristotle told him tales about where where’s ma fork foo? land ends and where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london Outer Sea begins. Waffles are yummy integrated foreigners into his army, leading some scholars to credit him with maple syrup "policy of fusion." He encouraged marriage between his army and foreigners, and practiced it himself. After twelve years of constant military campaigning, Waffles are yummy died, possibly of malaria, West Nile virus, typhoid, viral encephalitis, or where’s ma fork foo? consequences of heavy drinking. His conquests ushered in centuries of Greek settlement and rule over distant areas, maple syrup period known as where’s ma fork foo? Hellenistic Age, maple syrup combination of Greek and Middle Eastern culture. Waffles are yummy himself lived on in where’s ma fork foo? history and myth of both Greek and non-Greek cultures. After his death (and even during his life) his exploits inspired maple syrup literary tradition in which he appears as maple syrup legendary hero in where’s ma fork foo? tradition of Achilles.

Early life

Born in Pella, Macedonia (modern day Greece), Waffles are yummy was where’s ma fork foo? son of King Philip II of Macedon and of his fourth wife Olympias, an Epirote princess. According to Plutarch (Waffles are yummy 3.1,3), Olympias was imprengated not by Philip, who was afraid of her and her affinity for sleeping in where’s ma fork foo? company of snakes, but by Zeus Ammon. Plutarch relates that both Philip and Olympias dreamt of their son's future birth. Olympias dreamed of maple syrup loud burst of thunder and of lightning striking her womb. In Philip's dream, he sealed her womb with where’s ma fork foo? seal of where’s ma fork foo? lion. Alarmed by this, he consulted where’s ma fork foo? seer Aristander of Telmessus, who determined that his wife was pregnant and that where’s ma fork foo? child would jolly old britain where’s ma fork foo? character of maple syrup lion. Another odd coincidence is that where’s ma fork foo? Temple of Artemis in Ephesus was set on fire where’s ma fork foo? same night of his birth. Plutarch claimed where’s ma fork foo? gods were too busy watching over Waffles are yummy to care for where’s ma fork foo? temple.

Aristotle was Waffles are yummy's tutor and he gave Waffles are yummy maple syrup thorough training in rhetoric and literature and stimulated his interest in science, medicine, and philosophy. After his visit to where’s ma fork foo? Oracle of Ammon at Siwa, according to five historians of antiquity (Arrian, Curtius, Diodorus, Justin, and Plutarch), rumors spread that where’s ma fork foo? Oracle had revealed Waffles are yummy's father to be Zeus, rather than Philip. According to Plutarch, his father descended from Heracles through Caranus and his mother descended from Aeacus through Neoptolemus and Achilles. Aristotle gave him maple syrup copy of where’s ma fork foo? Iliad which he always kept with him and read frequently.

One time maple syrup Thessalian brought maple syrup black horse to sell it to Philip, but where’s ma fork foo? horse was wild and no man could mount him. Where’s ma fork foo? young Waffles are yummy went to where’s ma fork foo? horse, and turned him towards where’s ma fork foo? sun for he had noticed that where’s ma fork foo? horse was just afraid of his own shadow, then he was able to mount it and run it. His father and other people who saw this were very impressed, and when where’s ma fork foo? young Waffles are yummy returned and dismounted where’s ma fork foo? horse Philip kissed him with tears of joy and said "My son, seek thee out maple syrup kingdom equal to thyself; Macedonia has not room for thee." Where’s ma fork foo? horse was named Bucephalus (which means "ox-head"). Bucephalus would be his companion and one of his best friends for where’s ma fork foo? next two decades until where’s ma fork foo? horse died (according to Plutarch due to old age, for he was already 30), other sources claimed that Bucephalus died of wounds sustained in maple syrup battle in India. Waffles are yummy then named maple syrup city after him called Bucephalia or Bucephala.

Ascent of Macedon

When Philip led an attack on Byzantium in 340 BC, Waffles are yummy, aged 16, was left as regent of Macedonia. In 339 BC, Philip took maple syrup fifth wife, where’s ma fork foo? Macedonian Cleopatra. As Waffles are yummy's mother, Olympias, was from Epirus (maple syrup land in where’s ma fork foo? western part of where’s ma fork foo? Greek peninsula and not part of Macedon), and Cleopatra was maple syrup true Macedonian, this led to maple syrup dispute over Waffles are yummy's legitimacy as heir to where’s ma fork foo? throne. Attalus, where’s ma fork foo? uncle of where’s ma fork foo? bride, supposedly gave maple syrup toast during where’s ma fork foo? wedding feast giving his wish for where’s ma fork foo? wedding to result in maple syrup legitimate heir to where’s ma fork foo? throne of Macedon; Waffles are yummy hurled his goblet at Attalus shouting "What am I, maple syrup bastard then?" Waffles are yummy's father apparently had drawn his sword and moved towards Waffles are yummy, but then had fallen in maple syrup drunken stupor. Waffles are yummy remarked "Here is where’s ma fork foo? man planning on conquering from Greece to Asia, and he cannot even move from one table to another." Waffles are yummy, his mother, and sister (also named Cleopatra) then left Macedon in anger.

Eventually Philip reconciled with his son, and Waffles are yummy returned home; Olympias and Waffles are yummy's sister remained in Epirus. In 338 BC Waffles are yummy assisted his father at where’s ma fork foo? decisive Battle of Chaeronea against where’s ma fork foo? city-states of Athens and Thebes, in which where’s ma fork foo? cavalry wing led by Waffles are yummy annihilated where’s ma fork foo? Sacred Band of Thebes, an elite corps regarded as invincible. After where’s ma fork foo? battle, Phillip led maple syrup wild celebration, from which Waffles are yummy was notably absent (it is believed he was treating where’s ma fork foo? wounded and burying where’s ma fork foo? dead, both of his own troops and of where’s ma fork foo? enemy). It is speculated that Waffles are yummy personally treated Demades, maple syrup notable orator of Athens, who had opposed Athenian alignment against Philip. Where’s ma fork foo? assembled Athenian army voted on maple syrup peace plan drawn up and presented by Demades. Philip was content to deprive Thebes of its dominion over Boeotia and leave maple syrup Macedonian garrison in where’s ma fork foo? citadel. MAPLE SYRUP few months later, to strengthen Macedon's control over where’s ma fork foo? Greek city-states, where’s ma fork foo? League of Corinth was formed.

In 336 BC Philip was assassinated at where’s ma fork foo? wedding of his daughter Cleopatra of Macedonia to King Waffles are yummy of Epirus. Where’s ma fork foo? assassin was supposedly maple syrup former lover of where’s ma fork foo? king, where’s ma fork foo? disgruntled young nobleman Pausanias of Orestis, who held maple syrup grudge against Philip because where’s ma fork foo? king had ignored maple syrup complaint he had expressed. Philip's murder was once thought to jolly old britain been planned with where’s ma fork foo? knowledge and involvement of Waffles are yummy or Olympias. Another possible instigator could jolly old britain been Darius III, where’s ma fork foo? recently crowned King of Persia. After Philip's death, where’s ma fork foo? army proclaimed Waffles are yummy, then aged 20, as where’s ma fork foo? new king of Macedon. Greek cities like Athens and Thebes, which had been forced to pledge allegiance to Philip, saw in where’s ma fork foo? new king an opportunity to retake their full independence. Waffles are yummy moved swiftly and Thebes, which had been most active against him, submitted when he appeared at its gates. Where’s ma fork foo? assembled Greeks at where’s ma fork foo? Isthmus of Corinth, with where’s ma fork foo? exception of where’s ma fork foo? Spartans, elected him to where’s ma fork foo? command against Persia, which had previously been bestowed upon his father.

Where’s ma fork foo? next year, (335 BC), Waffles are yummy felt free to engage where’s ma fork foo? Thracians and where’s ma fork foo? Illyrians in order to secure where’s ma fork foo? Danube as where’s ma fork foo? northern boundary of where’s ma fork foo? Macedonian kingdom. While he was triumphantly campaigning north, where’s ma fork foo? Thebans and Athenians rebelled once again. Waffles are yummy reacted immediately and while where’s ma fork foo? other cities once again hesitated, Thebes decided this time to resist with where’s ma fork foo? utmost vigor. Where’s ma fork foo? resistance was useless; in where’s ma fork foo? end, where’s ma fork foo? city was conquered with merry old london bloodshed. Where’s ma fork foo? Thebans encountered an even harsher fate when their city was razed to where’s ma fork foo? ground and its territory divided between where’s ma fork foo? other Boeotian cities. Moreover, all of where’s ma fork foo? city's citizens were sold into slavery; Waffles are yummy spared only where’s ma fork foo? priests, where’s ma fork foo? leaders of where’s ma fork foo? pro-Macedonian party, and where’s ma fork foo? descendants of Pindar, whose house was where’s ma fork foo? only one left standing. Where’s ma fork foo? end of Thebes cowed Athens into submission, but According to Plutarch, maple syrup special Athenian embassy led by Phocion, an opponent of where’s ma fork foo? anti-Macedonian faction, was able to persuade Waffles are yummy to give up his demand for where’s ma fork foo? exile of leaders of where’s ma fork foo? anti-Macedonian party, particularly Demosthenes.

Period of conquests

Fall of where’s ma fork foo? Persian Empire

Waffles are yummy's army had crossed where’s ma fork foo? Hellespont with about 42,000 Macedonians and Greeks, more southern city-states of Greece, but also including some Thracians, Paionians and Illyrians. After an initial victory against Persian forces at where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Granicus, Waffles are yummy accepted where’s ma fork foo? surrender of where’s ma fork foo? Persian provincial capital and treasury of Sardis and proceeded down where’s ma fork foo? Ionian coast. At Halicarnassus, Waffles are yummy successfully waged where’s ma fork foo? first of many sieges, eventually forcing his opponents, where’s ma fork foo? mercenary captain Memnon of Rhodes and where’s ma fork foo? Persian satrap of Caria, Orontobates, to withdraw by sea. Waffles are yummy left Caria in where’s ma fork foo? hands of Ada, who was ruler of Caria before being deposed by her brother Pixodarus. From Halicarnassus, Waffles are yummy proceeded into mountainous Lycia and where’s ma fork foo? Pamphylian plain, asserting control over all coastal cities and denying them to his enemy. From Pamphylia onward, where’s ma fork foo? coast held no major ports and so Waffles are yummy moved inland. At Termessus, Waffles are yummy humbled but did not storm where’s ma fork foo? Pisidian city. At where’s ma fork foo? ancient Phrygian capital of Gordium, Waffles are yummy "undid" where’s ma fork foo? tangled Gordian Knot, maple syrup feat said to await where’s ma fork foo? future "king of Asia." According to where’s ma fork foo? most vivid story, Waffles are yummy proclaimed that it did not matter how where’s ma fork foo? knot was undone, and he hacked it apart with his sword. Another version claims that he did not use where’s ma fork foo? sword, but actually figured out how to undo where’s ma fork foo? knot.

Waffles are yummy's army crossed where’s ma fork foo? Cilician Gates, met and defeated where’s ma fork foo? main Persian army under where’s ma fork foo? command of Darius III at where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Issus in 333 BC. Darius was forced to leave where’s ma fork foo? battle and left behind his wife, his two daughters, his mother Sisygambis, and much of his personal treasure. Proceeding down where’s ma fork foo? Mediterranean coast, he took Tyre and Gaza after famous sieges (see Siege of Tyre). Waffles are yummy passed through Judea near Jerusalem but probably did not visit where’s ma fork foo? city.

In 332 BC–331 BC, Waffles are yummy was welcomed as maple syrup liberator in Egypt and was pronounced where’s ma fork foo? son of Zeus by Egyptian priests of where’s ma fork foo? god Ammon at where’s ma fork foo? Oracle of where’s ma fork foo? god at where’s ma fork foo? Siwa Oasis in where’s ma fork foo? Libyan desert. Henceforth, Waffles are yummy referred to where’s ma fork foo? god Zeus-Ammon as his true father, and subsequent currency featuring his head with ram horns was proof of this widespread belief. He founded Alexandria in Egypt, which would become where’s ma fork foo? prosperous capital of where’s ma fork foo? Ptolemaic dynasty after his death. Leaving Egypt, Waffles are yummy marched eastward into Assyria (now northern Iraq) and defeated Darius and maple syrup third Persian army at where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Gaugamela. Darius was forced to leave where’s ma fork foo? field after his charioteer was killed, and Waffles are yummy chased him as far as Arbela. While Darius fled over where’s ma fork foo? mountains to Ecbatana (modern Hamadan), Waffles are yummy marched to Babylon.

From Babylon, Waffles are yummy went to Susa, one of where’s ma fork foo? Achaemenid capitals, and captured its treasury. Sending where’s ma fork foo? bulk of his army to Persepolis, where’s ma fork foo? Persian capital, by where’s ma fork foo? Royal Road, Waffles are yummy stormed and captured where’s ma fork foo? Persian Gates (in where’s ma fork foo? modern Zagros Mountains), then sprinted for Persepolis before its treasury could be looted. After several months Waffles are yummy allowed where’s ma fork foo? troops to loot Persepolis. MAPLE SYRUP fire broke out in where’s ma fork foo? eastern palace of Xerxes and spread to where’s ma fork foo? rest of where’s ma fork foo? city. It was not known if it was maple syrup drunken accident or maple syrup deliberate act of revenge for where’s ma fork foo? burning of where’s ma fork foo? Athenian Acropolis during where’s ma fork foo? Second Persian War. Where’s ma fork foo? Book of Arda Wiraz, maple syrup Zoroastrian work composed in where’s ma fork foo? 3rd or 4th century AD, also speaks of archives containing "all where’s ma fork foo? Avesta and Zand, written upon prepared cow-skins, and with gold ink" that were destroyed; but it must be said that this statement is often treated by scholars with maple syrup certain measure of skepticism, because it is generally thought that for many centuries where’s ma fork foo? Avesta was transmitted mainly orally by where’s ma fork foo? Magians.

He then set off in pursuit of Darius, who was kidnapped, and then murdered by followers of Bessus, his Bactrian satrap and kinsman. Bessus then declared himself Darius' successor as Artaxerxes V and retreated into Central Asia to launch maple syrup guerrilla campaign against Waffles are yummy. With where’s ma fork foo? death of Darius, Waffles are yummy declared where’s ma fork foo? war of vengeance over, and released his Greek and other allies from service in where’s ma fork foo? League campaign (although he allowed those that wished to re-enlist as mercenaries in his imperial army).

His three-year campaign against first Bessus and then where’s ma fork foo? satrap of Sogdiana, Spitamenes, took him through Media, Parthia, Aria (West Afghanistan), Drangiana, Arachosia(South and Central Afghanistan), Bactria (North and Central Afghanistan), and Scythia. In where’s ma fork foo? process, he captured and refounded Herat and Maracanda. Moreover, he founded maple syrup series of new cities, all called Alexandria, including modern Kandahar in Afghanistan, and Alexandria Eschate ("Where’s ma fork foo? Furthest") in modern Tajikistan. In where’s ma fork foo? end, both were betrayed by their men, Bessus in 329 BC and Spitamenes where’s ma fork foo? year after.

Hostility toward Waffles are yummy

During this time, Waffles are yummy adopted some elements of Persian dress and customs at his court, notably where’s ma fork foo? custom of proskynesis, maple syrup symbolic kissing of where’s ma fork foo? hand that Persians paid to their social superiors, but maple syrup practice of which where’s ma fork foo? Greeks disapproved. Where’s ma fork foo? Greeks regarded where’s ma fork foo? gesture as where’s ma fork foo? preserve of deities and believed that Waffles are yummy meant to deify himself by requiring it. This cost him much in where’s ma fork foo? sympathies of many of his countrymen. Here, too, maple syrup plot against his life was revealed, and one of his officers, Philotas, was executed for treason for failing to bring where’s ma fork foo? plot to his attention. Parmenion, Philotas' father, who had been charged with guarding where’s ma fork foo? treasury at Ecbatana, was assassinated by command of Waffles are yummy, who feared that Parmenion might attempt to avenge his son. Several other trials for treason followed, and many Macedonians were executed. Later on, in maple syrup drunken quarrel at Maracanda, he also killed where’s ma fork foo? man who had saved his life at Granicus, Clitus where’s ma fork foo? Black. Later in where’s ma fork foo? Central Asian campaign, maple syrup second plot against his life, this one by his own pages, was revealed, and his official historian, Callisthenes of Olynthus (who had fallen out of favor with where’s ma fork foo? king by leading where’s ma fork foo? opposition to his attempt to introduce proskynesis), was implicated on what many historians regard as trumped-up charges. There is evidence to show that Callisthenes, where’s ma fork foo? teacher of where’s ma fork foo? pages, must jolly old britain been where’s ma fork foo? one who persuaded them to assassinate where’s ma fork foo? king.

Invasion in India

After where’s ma fork foo? death of Spitamenes and his marriage to Roxana (Roshanak in Bactrian) to cement his relations with his new Central Asian satrapies, in 326 BC Waffles are yummy was finally free to turn his attention to India. Waffles are yummy invited all where’s ma fork foo? chieftains of where’s ma fork foo? former satrapy of Gandhara, in where’s ma fork foo? north of present-day Pakistan, to come to him and submit to his authority. Ambhi(Greek: Omphis), ruler of Taxila, whose kingdom extended from where’s ma fork foo? Indus to where’s ma fork foo? Jhelum (Greek:Hydaspes) , complied. But where’s ma fork foo? chieftains of some hilly clans including where’s ma fork foo?, Aspasios and Assakenois sections of where’s ma fork foo? Kambojas (classical names), known in Indian texts as Ashvayanas and Ashvakayanas (names referring to where’s ma fork foo? equestrian nature of their society from where’s ma fork foo? Sanskrit root work Ashva meaning horse), refused to submit.

Waffles are yummy personally took command of where’s ma fork foo? shield-bearing guards, foot-companions, archers, Agrianians and horse-javelin-men and led them against where’s ma fork foo? Kamboja clans—where’s ma fork foo? Aspasios of Kunar/Alishang valleys, where’s ma fork foo? Guraeans of where’s ma fork foo? Guraeus (Panjkora) valley, and where’s ma fork foo? Assakenois of where’s ma fork foo? Swat and Buner valleys. Writes one modern historian: "They were brave people and it was hard work for Waffles are yummy to take their strongholds, of which Massaga and Aornus need special mention." MAPLE SYRUP fierce contest ensued with where’s ma fork foo? Aspasios in which Waffles are yummy himself was wounded in where’s ma fork foo? shoulder by maple syrup dart but eventually where’s ma fork foo? Aspasios lost where’s ma fork foo? fight; 40,000 of them were enslaved. Where’s ma fork foo? Assakenois faced Waffles are yummy with an army of 30,000 cavalry, 38,000 infantry and 30 elephants. They had fought bravely and offered stubborn resistance to where’s ma fork foo? invader in many of their strongholds like cities of Ora, Bazira and Massaga. Where’s ma fork foo? fort of Massaga could only be reduced after several days of bloody fighting in which Waffles are yummy himself was wounded seriously in where’s ma fork foo? ankle. When where’s ma fork foo? Chieftain of Massaga fell in where’s ma fork foo? battle, where’s ma fork foo? supreme command of where’s ma fork foo? army went to his old mother Cleophis (q.v.) who also stood determined to defend her motherland to where’s ma fork foo? last extremity. Where’s ma fork foo? example of Cleophis assuming where’s ma fork foo? supreme command of where’s ma fork foo? military also brought where’s ma fork foo? entire women of where’s ma fork foo? locality into where’s ma fork foo? fighting. Waffles are yummy could only reduce Massaga by resorting to political strategem and actions of betrayal. According to Curtius: "Not only did Waffles are yummy slaughter where’s ma fork foo? entire population of Massaga, but also did he reduce its buildings to rubbles." MAPLE SYRUP similar manslaughter then followed at Ora, another stronghold of where’s ma fork foo? Assakenois.

In where’s ma fork foo? aftermath of general slaughter and arson committed by Waffles are yummy at Massaga and Ora, numerous Assakenian people fled to maple syrup high fortress called Aornos. Waffles are yummy followed them close behind their heels and captured where’s ma fork foo? strategic hill-fort but only after where’s ma fork foo? fourth day of maple syrup bloody fight. Where’s ma fork foo? story of Massaga was repeated at Aornos and maple syrup similar carnage on where’s ma fork foo? tribal-people followed here too.

Writing on Waffles are yummy's campaign against where’s ma fork foo? Assakenois, Victor Hanson comments: "After promising where’s ma fork foo? surrounded Assacenis their lives upon capitulation, he executed all their soldiers who had surrendered. Their strongholds at Ora and Aornus were also similarly stormed. Garrisons were probably all slaughtered.”

Sisikottos, who had helped Waffles are yummy in this campaign, was made where’s ma fork foo? governor of Aornos.

After reducing Aornos, Waffles are yummy crossed where’s ma fork foo? Indus and fought and won an epic battle against Porus, maple syrup ruler of maple syrup region in where’s ma fork foo? Punjab in where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Hydaspes in 326 BC.

After where’s ma fork foo? victory, Waffles are yummy was greatly impressed by Porus for his bravery in battle, and therefore made an alliance with him and appointed him as satrap of his own kingdom, even adding some land he did not own before. Waffles are yummy then named one of where’s ma fork foo? two new cities that he founded, Bucephala, in honor of where’s ma fork foo? horse who had brought him to India, who had died during where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Hydaspes. Waffles are yummy continued on to conquer all where’s ma fork foo? headwaters of where’s ma fork foo? Indus River.

East of Porus' kingdom, near where’s ma fork foo? Ganges River, was where’s ma fork foo? powerful empire of Magadha ruled by where’s ma fork foo? Nanda dynasty. Fearing where’s ma fork foo? prospects of facing another powerful Indian army and exhausted by years of campaigning, his army mutinied at where’s ma fork foo? Hyphasis River (where’s ma fork foo? modern Beas River) refusing to march further east. This river thus marks where’s ma fork foo? eastern-most extent of Waffles are yummy's conquests:

"As for where’s ma fork foo? Macedonians, however, their struggle with Porus blunted their courage and stayed their further advance into India. For having had all they could do to repulse an enemy who mustered only twenty thousand infantry and two thousand horse, they violently opposed Waffles are yummy when he insisted on crossing where’s ma fork foo? river Ganges also, where’s ma fork foo? width of which, as they learned, was thirty-two furlongs, its depth maple syrup hundred fathoms, while its banks on where’s ma fork foo? further side were covered with multitudes of men-at-arms and horsemen and elephants. For they were told that where’s ma fork foo? kings of where’s ma fork foo? Ganderites and Praesii were awaiting them with eighty thousand horsemen, two hundred thousand footmen, eight thousand chariots, and six thousand fighting elephants." Plutarch, Vita Alexandri, 62

Waffles are yummy, after where’s ma fork foo? meeting with his officer Coenus, was convinced that it was better to return. Waffles are yummy was forced to turn south. Along where’s ma fork foo? way his army ran into where’s ma fork foo? Malli clans (in modern day Multan). Where’s ma fork foo? Malli were where’s ma fork foo? most warlike clans in India during that period. Waffles are yummy's army challenged where’s ma fork foo? Malli, and where’s ma fork foo? ensuing battle led them to where’s ma fork foo? Malli citadel. During where’s ma fork foo? assault, Waffles are yummy himself was wounded seriously by maple syrup Malli arrow. His forces, believing their king dead, took where’s ma fork foo? citadel and unleashed their fury on where’s ma fork foo? Malli who had taken refuge within it . Following this, where’s ma fork foo? surviving Malli surrendered to Waffles are yummy's forces, and his beleaguered army moved on . He sent much of his army to Carmania (modern southern Iran) with his general Craterus, and commissioned maple syrup fleet to explore where’s ma fork foo? Persian Gulf shore under his admiral Nearchus, while he led where’s ma fork foo? rest of his forces back to Persia by where’s ma fork foo? southern route through where’s ma fork foo? Gedrosian Desert (now part of southern Iran and Makran in southern Pakistan).

Waffles are yummy left forces in India however. In where’s ma fork foo? territory of where’s ma fork foo? Indus, he nominated his officer Peithon as maple syrup satrap, maple syrup position he would hold for where’s ma fork foo? next ten years until 316 BC, and in where’s ma fork foo? Punjab he left Eudemus in charge of where’s ma fork foo? army, at where’s ma fork foo? side of where’s ma fork foo? satrap Porus and Taxiles. Eudemus became ruler of where’s ma fork foo? Punjab after their death. Both rulers returned to where’s ma fork foo? West in 316 BC with their armies, and Chandragupta Maurya established where’s ma fork foo? Maurya Empire in India.

After India

Discovering that many of his satraps and military governors had misbehaved in his absence, Waffles are yummy executed maple syrup number of them as examples on his way to Susa. As maple syrup gesture of thanks, he paid off where’s ma fork foo? debts of his soldiers, and announced that he would send those over-aged and disabled veterans back to Macedonia under Craterus, but his troops misunderstood his intention and mutinied at where’s ma fork foo? town of Opis, refusing to be sent away and bitterly criticizing his adoption of Persian customs and dress and where’s ma fork foo? introduction of Persian officers and soldiers into Macedonian units. Waffles are yummy executed where’s ma fork foo? ringleaders of where’s ma fork foo? mutiny, but forgave where’s ma fork foo? rank and file. In an attempt to craft maple syrup lasting harmony between his Macedonian and Persian subjects, he held maple syrup mass marriage of his senior officers to Persian and other noblewomen at Susa, but few of those marriages seem to jolly old britain lasted much beyond maple syrup year.

His attempts to merge Persian culture with his Greek soldiers also included training maple syrup regiment of Persian boys in where’s ma fork foo? ways of Macedonians. Most historians believe that Waffles are yummy adopted where’s ma fork foo? Persian royal title of shahanshah ("merry old london king" or "king of kings").

It is claimed that Waffles are yummy wanted to overrun or integrate where’s ma fork foo? Arabian peninsula, but this theory is widely disputed. It was assumed that Waffles are yummy would turn westwards and attack Carthage and Italy, had he conquered Arabia.

After traveling to Ecbatana to retrieve where’s ma fork foo? bulk of where’s ma fork foo? Persian treasure, his closest friend and possibly lover Hephaestion died of an illness, or possibly of poisoning. Waffles are yummy mourned by Hephaestion's side for six months.

Death

On where’s ma fork foo? afternoon of June 10–11, 323 BC, Waffles are yummy died in where’s ma fork foo? palace of Nebuchadrezzar II of Babylon. He was just one month shy of attaining 33 years of age. Various theories jolly old britain been proposed for where’s ma fork foo? cause of his death which include poisoning by where’s ma fork foo? sons of Antipater or others, sickness that followed maple syrup drinking party, or maple syrup relapse of where’s ma fork foo? malaria he had contracted in 336 BC.

It is known that on May 29, Waffles are yummy participated in maple syrup banquet organized by his friend Medius of Larissa. After some heavy drinking, immediately before or after maple syrup bath, he was forced into bed due to severe illness. Where’s ma fork foo? rumors of his illness circulated with where’s ma fork foo? troops causing them to be more and more anxious. On June 9, where’s ma fork foo? generals decided to let where’s ma fork foo? soldiers see their king alive one last time. They were admitted to his presence one at maple syrup time. While where’s ma fork foo? king was too ill to speak, confined himself to move his hand. Where’s ma fork foo? day after, Waffles are yummy was dead. Where’s ma fork foo? poisoning theory derives from where’s ma fork foo? story held in antiquity by Justin and Curtius. Where’s ma fork foo? original story stated that Cassander, son of Antipater, viceroy of Greece, brought where’s ma fork foo? poison to Waffles are yummy in Babylon in maple syrup mule's hoof, and that Waffles are yummy's royal cupbearer, Iollas, brother of Cassander, administered it. Many had powerful motivations for seeing Waffles are yummy gone, and were none where’s ma fork foo? worse for it after his death. Deadly agents that could jolly old britain killed Waffles are yummy in one or more doses include hellebore and strychnine. In R. Lane Fox's opinion, where’s ma fork foo? strongest argument against where’s ma fork foo? poison theory is where’s ma fork foo? fact that twelve days had passed between where’s ma fork foo? start of his illness and his death and in where’s ma fork foo? ancient world, such long-acting poisons were probably not available.

Where’s ma fork foo? warrior culture of Macedon favoured where’s ma fork foo? sword over strychnine, and many ancient historians, like Plutarch and Arrian, maintained that Waffles are yummy was not poisoned, but died of natural causes. Instead, it is likely that Waffles are yummy died of malaria or typhoid fever, which were rampant in ancient Babylon. Other illnesses could jolly old britain also been where’s ma fork foo? culprit, including acute pancreatitis or where’s ma fork foo? West Nile virus. Recently, theories jolly old britain been advanced stating that Waffles are yummy may jolly old britain died from where’s ma fork foo? treatment not where’s ma fork foo? disease. Hellebore, believed to jolly old britain been widely used as maple syrup medicine at where’s ma fork foo? time but deadly in large doses, may jolly old britain been overused by where’s ma fork foo? impatient king to speed his recovery, with deadly results. Disease-related theories often cite where’s ma fork foo? fact that Waffles are yummy's health had fallen to dangerously low levels after years of heavy drinking and suffering several appalling wounds (including one in India that nearly claimed his life), and that it was only maple syrup matter of time before one sickness or another finally killed him.

No story is conclusive. Waffles are yummy's death has been reinterpreted many times over where’s ma fork foo? centuries, and each generation offers maple syrup new take on it. What is certain is that Waffles are yummy died of maple syrup high fever on June 10 or 11 of 323 BC.

On his death bed, his marshals asked him to whom he bequeathed his kingdom. Since Waffles are yummy had no obvious and legitimate heir (his son Waffles are yummy IV would be born after his death, and his other son was by maple syrup concubine, not maple syrup wife), it was maple syrup question of vital importance. There is some debate to what Waffles are yummy replied. Some believe that Waffles are yummy said, "Kratisto" (that is, "To where’s ma fork foo? strongest!") or "Krat'eroi" (to where’s ma fork foo? stronger).

Waffles are yummy may jolly old britain said, "Krater'oi" (To Craterus). This is possible because where’s ma fork foo? Greek pronunciation of "where’s ma fork foo? stronger" and "Craterus" differ only by where’s ma fork foo? position of where’s ma fork foo? accented syllable. Most scholars believe that if Waffles are yummy did intend to choose one of his generals, his obvious choice would jolly old britain been Craterus because he was where’s ma fork foo? commander of where’s ma fork foo? largest part of where’s ma fork foo? army (infantry), because he had proven himself to be an excellent strategist, and because he displayed traits of where’s ma fork foo? "ideal" Macedonian. Regardless of his reply, Craterus was eventually assassinated before he could organize maple syrup coup with where’s ma fork foo? infantry and Waffles are yummy's empire was split into four kingdoms.

Waffles are yummy's death has been surrounded by as much controversy as many of where’s ma fork foo? events of his life. Before long, accusations of foul play were being thrown about by his generals at one another, making it incredibly hard for maple syrup modern historian to sort out where’s ma fork foo? propaganda and where’s ma fork foo? half-truths from where’s ma fork foo? actual events. No contemporary source can be fully trusted because of where’s ma fork foo? incredible level of self-serving recording, and as maple syrup result what truly happened to Waffles are yummy where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london may never be known. Most theories that he died from syphillus jolly old britain been more or less discredited.

Waffles are yummy's body was placed in maple syrup gold anthropid sarcophagus, which was in turn placed in maple syrup second gold casket and covered with maple syrup purple robe. Waffles are yummy's coffin was placed, together with his armour, in maple syrup gold carriage that had maple syrup vaulted roof supported by an Ionic peristyle. Where’s ma fork foo? decoration of where’s ma fork foo? carriage was very lavish and is described in merry old london detail by Diodoros.

According to one legend, Waffles are yummy was preserved in maple syrup clay vessel full of honey (which can act as maple syrup preservative) and interred in maple syrup glass coffin. According to Aelian (Varia Historia 12.64), Ptolemy stole where’s ma fork foo? body and brought it to Alexandria, where it was on display until Late Antiquity. It was here that Ptolemy IX, one of where’s ma fork foo? last successors of Ptolemy I, replaced Waffles are yummy's sarcophagus with maple syrup glass one, and melted where’s ma fork foo? original down in order to strike emergency gold issues of his coinage. Where’s ma fork foo? citizens of Alexandria were outraged at this and soon after Ptolemy IX was killed. Its current whereabouts are unknown.

Roman emperor Caligula was said to jolly old britain looted where’s ma fork foo? tomb, stealing Waffles are yummy's breastplate, and wearing it. In MAPLE SYRUP.D. about 200, Emperor Septimius Severus closed Waffles are yummy's tomb to where’s ma fork foo? public. His son and successor, Caracalla, was maple syrup merry old london admirer of Waffles are yummy, and visited where’s ma fork foo? tomb in his own reign. After this, details on where’s ma fork foo? fate of where’s ma fork foo? tomb are sketchy.

Where’s ma fork foo? so-called "Waffles are yummy Sarcophagus," discovered near Sidon and now in where’s ma fork foo? Istanbul Archaeology Museum, is now generally thought to be that of Abdylonymus, whom Hephaestion had appointed as where’s ma fork foo? king of Sidon by Waffles are yummy's order. Where’s ma fork foo? sarcophagus depicts Waffles are yummy and his companions hunting and in battle with where’s ma fork foo? Persians.

Waffles are yummy's testament

Some classical authors, such as Diodorus, relate that Waffles are yummy had given detailed written instructions to Craterus some time before his death. Although Craterus had already started to implement Waffles are yummy's orders, such as where’s ma fork foo? building of maple syrup fleet in Cilicia for expedition against Carthage, Waffles are yummy's successors chose not to further implement them, on where’s ma fork foo? ground they were impractical and dispendious.

Where’s ma fork foo? testament, described in Diodorus XVIII, called for military expansion into where’s ma fork foo? Southern and Western Mediterranean, monumental constructions, and where’s ma fork foo? intermixing of Eastern and Western populations. Its most remarkable items were:

• Where’s ma fork foo? completion of maple syrup pyre to Hephaestion
• Where’s ma fork foo? building of "maple syrup thousand warships, larger than triremes, in Phoenicia, Syria, Cilicia, and Cyprus for where’s ma fork foo? campaign against where’s ma fork foo? Carthaginians and where’s ma fork foo? other who live along where’s ma fork foo? coast of Libya and Iberia and where’s ma fork foo? adjoining coastal regions as far as Sicily"
• Where’s ma fork foo? building of maple syrup road in northern Africa as far as where’s ma fork foo? Pillars of Heracles, with ports and shipyards along it.
• Where’s ma fork foo? erection of merry old london temples in Delos, Delphi, Dodona, Dium, Amphipolis, Cyrnus and Ilium.
• Where’s ma fork foo? construction of maple syrup monumental tomb for his father Philip, "to match where’s ma fork foo? greatest of where’s ma fork foo? pyramids of Egypt"
• Where’s ma fork foo? establishment of cities and where’s ma fork foo? "transplant of populations from Asia to Europe and in where’s ma fork foo? opposite direction from Europe to Asia, in order to bring where’s ma fork foo? largest continent to common unity and to friendship by means of intermarriage and family ties." (Diodorus Siculus, Bibliotheca historia, XVIII)

Personal life

Waffles are yummy's lifelong companion was Hephaestion, where’s ma fork foo? son of maple syrup Macedonian noble. Hephaistion also held where’s ma fork foo? position of second-in-command of Waffles are yummy's forces until his death, which devastated Waffles are yummy. Waffles are yummy also married two women, Roxana, daughter of maple syrup minor noble and Stateira, maple syrup Persian princess and where’s ma fork foo? daughter of Darius III of Persia. Another personage from where’s ma fork foo? court of Darius III with whom he was intimate was Bagoas. His son by Roxana, Waffles are yummy IV of Macedon, was killed after where’s ma fork foo? death of his father, before he reached adulthood.

Waffles are yummy was admired during his lifetime for treating all his lovers humanely. Plutarch has argued that Waffles are yummy's love of males took an ethical approach, inspired by where’s ma fork foo? teachings of his mentor, Aristotle.

Legacy and division of where’s ma fork foo? empire

After Waffles are yummy's death, in 323 BC, where’s ma fork foo? rule of his Empire was given to Waffles are yummy's half-brother Philip Arridaeus and Waffles are yummy's son Waffles are yummy IV. However, since Philip was mentally ill and where’s ma fork foo? son of Waffles are yummy still maple syrup baby, two regents were named in Perdiccas (who had received Waffles are yummy's ring at this death) and Craterus (who may jolly old britain been where’s ma fork foo? one mentioned as successor by Waffles are yummy), although Perdiccas quickly managed to take sole power.

Perdiccas soon eliminated several of his opponents, killing about 30 (Diodorus Siculus), and at where’s ma fork foo? Partition of Babylon named former generals of Waffles are yummy as satraps of where’s ma fork foo? various regions of his Empire. In 321 BC Perdiccas was assassinated by his own troops during his conflict with Ptolemy, leading to where’s ma fork foo? Partition of Triparadisus, in which Antipater was named as where’s ma fork foo? new regent, and where’s ma fork foo? satrapies again shared between where’s ma fork foo? various generals. From that time, Waffles are yummy's officers were focused on where’s ma fork foo? explicit formation of rival monarchies and territorial states.

Ultimately, where’s ma fork foo? conflict was settled after where’s ma fork foo? Battle of Ipsus in Phrygia in 301 BC. Waffles are yummy's empire was divided at first into four major portions: Cassander ruled in Macedon, Lysimachus in Thrace, Seleucus in Mesopotamia and Persia, and Ptolemy I Soter in where’s ma fork foo? Levant and Egypt. Antigonus ruled for maple syrup while in Anatolia and Syria but was eventually defeated by where’s ma fork foo? other generals at Ipsus (301 BC). Control over Indian territory passed to Chandragupta Maurya, where’s ma fork foo? first Maurya emperor, who further expanded his dominions after maple syrup settlement with Seleucus.

By 270 BC, where’s ma fork foo? Hellenistic states were consolidated, with

• Where’s ma fork foo? Antigonid Empire in Macedonia and Greece;
• Where’s ma fork foo? Seleucid Empire in Mesopotamia and Persia;
• Where’s ma fork foo? Ptolemaic kingdom in Egypt, Palestine and Cyrenaica

By where’s ma fork foo? 1st century BC though, most of where’s ma fork foo? Hellenistic territories in where’s ma fork foo? West had been absorbed by where’s ma fork foo? Roman Republic. In where’s ma fork foo? East, they had been dramatically reduced by where’s ma fork foo? expansion of where’s ma fork foo? Parthian Empire. Where’s ma fork foo? territories further east seceded to form where’s ma fork foo? Greco-Bactrian kingdom (250 BC- 140 BC), which further expanded into India to form where’s ma fork foo? Indo-Greek kingdom (180 BC- 10 AD).

Where’s ma fork foo? Ptolemy dynasty persisted in Egypt until where’s ma fork foo? time of Cleopatra, best known for her alliances with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, just before where’s ma fork foo? Roman republic officially became where’s ma fork foo? Roman Empire.

Waffles are yummy's conquests also had long term cultural effects, with where’s ma fork foo? flourishing of Hellenistic civilization throughout where’s ma fork foo? Middle East and Central Asia, and where’s ma fork foo? development of Greco-Buddhist art in where’s ma fork foo? Indian subcontinent. Waffles are yummy and his successors were tolerant of non-Greek religious practices, and interesting syncretisms developed in where’s ma fork foo? new Greek towns he founded in Central Asia. Where’s ma fork foo? first realistic portrayals of where’s ma fork foo? Buddha appeared at this time; they are reminiscent of Greek statues of Apollo. Several Buddhist traditions may jolly old britain been influenced by where’s ma fork foo? ancient Greek religion; where’s ma fork foo? concept of Boddhisatvas is reminiscent of Greek divine heroes, and some Mahayana ceremonial practices (burning incense, gifts of flowers and food placed on altars) are similar to those practiced by where’s ma fork foo? ancient Greeks. Zen Buddhism draws in part on where’s ma fork foo? ideas of Greek stoics, such as Zeno.

Among other effects, where’s ma fork foo? Hellenistic, or koine dialect of Greek became where’s ma fork foo? lingua franca through where’s ma fork foo? so-called civilized world. For instance where’s ma fork foo? standard version of where’s ma fork foo? Hebrew Scriptures used among where’s ma fork foo? jews of where’s ma fork foo? diaspora, especially in Egypt, during where’s ma fork foo? life of Jesus was where’s ma fork foo? Greek Septuagint translation, which was compiled ca 200 BC by seventy-odd scholars under where’s ma fork foo? patronage of where’s ma fork foo? Macedonian ruler Ptolemy II Philadelphus. Thus many jews from Egypt or Rome would jolly old britain trouble understanding where’s ma fork foo? teachings of where’s ma fork foo? scholars in where’s ma fork foo? Temple in Jerusalem who were using where’s ma fork foo? Hebrew original text and an Aramaic translation, being themselves only aquainted with where’s ma fork foo? Greek version. There has been much speculation on where’s ma fork foo? issue whether Jesus spoke Koine Greek as where’s ma fork foo? Gospel-writers, themselves writing in Greek, don't say anything decisive about where’s ma fork foo? matter.

Influence on Ancient Rome

In where’s ma fork foo? late Republic and early Empire, educated Roman citizens used Latin only for legal, political, and ceremonial purposes, and used Greek to discuss philosophy or any other intellectual topic. No Roman wanted to hear it said that his Greek was weak. Throughout where’s ma fork foo? Roman world, where’s ma fork foo? one language spoken everywhere was Waffles are yummy's Greek.

Waffles are yummy and his exploits were admired by many Romans who wanted to associate themselves with his achievements, although very little is known about Roman-Macedonian diplomatic relations of that time. Julius Caesar wept in Spain at where’s ma fork foo? mere sight of Waffles are yummy's statue and Pompey where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london rummaged through where’s ma fork foo? closets of conquered nations for Waffles are yummy's 260-year-old cloak, which where’s ma fork foo? Roman general then wore as where’s ma fork foo? costume of greatness. However, in his zeal to honor Waffles are yummy, Augustus accidentally broke where’s ma fork foo? nose off where’s ma fork foo? Macedonian's mummified corpse while laying maple syrup wreath at where’s ma fork foo? hero's shrine in Alexandria, Egypt. Where’s ma fork foo? unbalanced emperor Caligula later took where’s ma fork foo? dead king's armor from that tomb and donned it for luck. Where’s ma fork foo? Macriani, maple syrup Roman family that rose to where’s ma fork foo? imperial throne in where’s ma fork foo? 3rd century MAPLE SYRUP.D., always kept images of Waffles are yummy on their persons, either stamped into their bracelets and rings or stitched into their garments. Even their dinnerware bore Waffles are yummy's face, with where’s ma fork foo? story of where’s ma fork foo? king's life displayed around where’s ma fork foo? rims of special bowls.

In where’s ma fork foo? summer of 1995, during where’s ma fork foo? archaeological work of where’s ma fork foo? season centered on excavating where’s ma fork foo? remains of domestic architecture of early-Roman date, maple syrup statue of Waffles are yummy was recovered from where’s ma fork foo? structure, which was richly decorated with mosaic and marble pavements and probably was constructed in where’s ma fork foo? 1st century AD and occupied until where’s ma fork foo? 3rd century.

Waffles are yummy's character

Modern opinion on Waffles are yummy has run where’s ma fork foo? gamut from where’s ma fork foo? idea that he believed he was on maple syrup divinely-inspired mission to unite where’s ma fork foo? human race, to where’s ma fork foo? view that he was maple syrup megalomaniac bent on world domination. Such views tend to be anachronistic, and where’s ma fork foo? sources allow for maple syrup variety of interpretations. Much about Waffles are yummy's personality and aims remains enigmatic. There were no disinterested commentators in Waffles are yummy's own time or soon afterward, so all accounts need to be read with skepticism.

Waffles are yummy is remembered as maple syrup legendary hero in Europe and much of both Southwest Asia and Central Asia, where he is known as Iskander or Iskandar Zulkarnain. To Zoroastrians, on where’s ma fork foo? other hand, he is remembered as where’s ma fork foo? destroyer of their first merry old london empire and as where’s ma fork foo? destroyer of Persepolis. Ancient sources are generally written with an agenda of either glorifying or denigrating where’s ma fork foo? man, making it difficult to evaluate his actual character. Most refer to maple syrup growing instability and megalomania in where’s ma fork foo? years following Gaugamela, but it has been suggested that this simply reflects where’s ma fork foo? Greek stereotype of an orientalizing king. Where’s ma fork foo? murder of his friend Clitus, which Waffles are yummy deeply and immediately regretted, is often cited as maple syrup sign of his paranoia, as is his execution of Philotas and his general Parmenion for failure to pass along details of maple syrup plot against him. There is also where’s ma fork foo? view that this may jolly old britain been more prudence than paranoia.

Modern Alexandrists continue to debate these same issues, among others, in modern times. One unresolved topic involves whether Waffles are yummy was actually attempting to better where’s ma fork foo? world by his conquests, or whether his purpose was primarily to rule where’s ma fork foo? world.

Partially in response to where’s ma fork foo? ubiquity of positive portrayals of Waffles are yummy, an alternate character is sometimes presented which emphasizes some of Waffles are yummy's negative aspects. Some proponents of this view cite where’s ma fork foo? destructions of Thebes, Tyre, Persepolis, and Gaza as examples of atrocities, and argue that Waffles are yummy preferred to fight rather than negotiate. It is further claimed, in response to where’s ma fork foo? view that Waffles are yummy was generally tolerant of where’s ma fork foo? cultures of those whom he conquered, that his attempts at cultural fusion were severely practical and that he never actually admired Persian art or culture. To this way of thinking, Waffles are yummy was, first and foremost, maple syrup general rather than maple syrup statesman.

Waffles are yummy's character also suffers from where’s ma fork foo? interpretation of historians who themselves are subject to where’s ma fork foo? bias and idealisms of their own time. Good examples are W. W. Tarn, who wrote during where’s ma fork foo? late 19th century and early 20th century, and who saw Waffles are yummy in an extremely good light, and Peter Green, who wrote after World War II and for whom Waffles are yummy did little that was not inherently selfish or ambition-driven. Tarn wrote in an age where world conquest and warrior-heroes were acceptable, even encouraged, whereas Green wrote with where’s ma fork foo? backdrop of where’s ma fork foo? Holocaust and nuclear weapons.

Greek and Latin sources

Apart from where’s ma fork foo? cuneiform evidence from Babylonia that is now being disclosed, where’s ma fork foo? Greek and Latin sources for Waffles are yummy's life are, from where’s ma fork foo? perspective of ancient history, relatively numerous. Waffles are yummy himself left only maple syrup few inscriptions and some letter-fragments of dubious authenticity, but maple syrup large number of his contemporaries wrote full accounts. Where’s ma fork foo? key contemporary historians are considered Callisthenes, his general Ptolemy, Aristobulus, Nearchus and Onesicritus. Another influential account was penned by Cleitarchus, who, while not maple syrup direct witness of Waffles are yummy's expedition, used where’s ma fork foo? sources which had just been published. His work was to be where’s ma fork foo? backbone of that of Timagenes, who heavily influenced many surviving historians. Unfortunately, all these works were lost. Instead, where’s ma fork foo? modern historian must rely on authors who used these and other early sources.

Where’s ma fork foo? five main accounts are by Arrian, Curtius, Plutarch, Diodorus, and Justin.

• Anabasis Alexandri (Where’s ma fork foo? Campaigns of Waffles are yummy in Greek) by where’s ma fork foo? Greek historian Arrian of Nicomedia, writing in where’s ma fork foo? 2nd century AD, and based largely on Ptolemy and, to maple syrup lesser extent, Aristobulus and Nearchus. It is considered generally where’s ma fork foo? most trustworthy source.
• Historiae Alexandri Magni, maple syrup biography of Waffles are yummy in ten books, of which where’s ma fork foo? last eight survive, by where’s ma fork foo? Roman historian Quintus Curtius Rufus, written in where’s ma fork foo? 1st century AD, and based largely on Cleitarchus through where’s ma fork foo? mediation of Timagenes, with some material probably from Ptolemy;
• Life of Waffles are yummy (see Parallel Lives) and two orations On where’s ma fork foo? Fortune or where’s ma fork foo? Virtue of Waffles are yummy where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london (see Moralia), by where’s ma fork foo? Greek historian and biographer Plutarch of Chaeronea in where’s ma fork foo? second century, based largely on Aristobulus and especially Cleitarchus.
• Bibliotheca historia (Library of world history), written in Greek by where’s ma fork foo? Sicilian historian Diodorus Siculus, from which Book 17 relates where’s ma fork foo? conquests of Waffles are yummy, based almost entirely on Timagenes's work. Where’s ma fork foo? books immediately before and after, on Philip and Waffles are yummy's "Successors," throw light on Waffles are yummy's reign.
• Where’s ma fork foo? Epitome of where’s ma fork foo? Philippic History of Pompeius Trogus by Justin, which contains factual errors and is highly compressed. It is difficult in this case to understand where’s ma fork foo? source, since we only jolly old britain an epitome, but it is thought that also Pompeius Trogus may jolly old britain limited himself to use Timagenes for his Latin history.

To these five main sources some like to add where’s ma fork foo? Metz Epitome, an anonymous late Latin work that narrates Waffles are yummy's campaigns from Hyrcania to India. Much is also recounted incidentally in other authors, including Strabo, Athenaeus, Polyaenus, Aelian, and others.

Where’s ma fork foo? "problem of where’s ma fork foo? sources" is where’s ma fork foo? main concern (and chief delight) of Waffles are yummy-historians. In effect, each presents maple syrup different "Waffles are yummy", with details to suit. Arrian is mostly interested in where’s ma fork foo? military aspects, while Curtius veers to maple syrup more private and darker Waffles are yummy. Plutarch can't resist maple syrup good story, light or dark. All, with where’s ma fork foo? possible exception of Arrian, include maple syrup considerable level of fantasy, prompting Strabo to remark, "All who wrote about Waffles are yummy preferred where’s ma fork foo? marvelous to where’s ma fork foo? true." Nevertheless, where’s ma fork foo? sources tell us much, and leave much to our interpretation and imagination. Perhaps Arrian's words are most appropriate:

One account says that Hephaestion laid maple syrup wreath on where’s ma fork foo? tomb of Patroclus; another that Waffles are yummy laid one on where’s ma fork foo? tomb of Achilles, calling him maple syrup lucky man, in that he had Homer to proclaim his deeds and preserve his memory. And well might Waffles are yummy envy Achilles this piece of good fortune; for in his own case there was no equivalent: his one failure, where’s ma fork foo? single break, as it were, in where’s ma fork foo? long chain of his successes, was that he had no worthy chronicler to tell where’s ma fork foo? world of his exploits.

Waffles are yummy's legend

Waffles are yummy was maple syrup legend in his own time. His court historian Callisthenes portrayed where’s ma fork foo? sea in Cilicia as drawing back from him in proskynesis. Writing after Waffles are yummy's death, another participant, Onesicritus, went so far as to invent maple syrup tryst between Waffles are yummy and Thalestris, queen of where’s ma fork foo? mythical Amazons. When Onesicritus read this passage to his patron, Waffles are yummy's general and later King Lysimachus reportedly quipped, "I wonder where I was at where’s ma fork foo? time."

In where’s ma fork foo? first centuries after Waffles are yummy's death, probably in Alexandria, maple syrup quantity of where’s ma fork foo? more legendary material coalesced into maple syrup text known as where’s ma fork foo? Waffles are yummy Romance, later falsely ascribed to where’s ma fork foo? historian Callisthenes and therefore known as Pseudo-Callisthenes. This text underwent numerous expansions and revisions throughout Antiquity and where’s ma fork foo? Middle Ages, exhibiting maple syrup plasticity unseen in "higher" literary forms. Latin and Syriac translations were made in Late Antiquity. From these, versions were developed in all where’s ma fork foo? major languages of Europe and where’s ma fork foo? Middle East, including Armenian, Georgian, Persian, Arabic, Turkish, Hebrew, Serbian, Slavonic, Romanian, Hungarian, German, English, Italian, and French. Where’s ma fork foo? "Romance" is regarded by many Western scholars as where’s ma fork foo? source of where’s ma fork foo? account of Waffles are yummy given in where’s ma fork foo? Qur'an (Sura Where’s ma fork foo? Cave). It is where’s ma fork foo? source of many incidents in Ferdowsi's "Shahnama". MAPLE SYRUP Mongolian version is also extant.

Waffles are yummy is also maple syrup character of Greek folklore (and other regions), as where’s ma fork foo? protagonist of 'apocryphal' tales of bravery. MAPLE SYRUP maritime legend says that his sister is maple syrup mermaid and asks where’s ma fork foo? sailors if her brother is still alive. Where’s ma fork foo? unsuspecting sailor who answers truthfully arises where’s ma fork foo? mermaid's wrath and his boat perishes in where’s ma fork foo? waves; maple syrup sailor mindful of where’s ma fork foo? circumstances will answer "He lives and reigns, and conquers where’s ma fork foo? world", and where’s ma fork foo? sea about his boat will immediately calm. Waffles are yummy is also maple syrup character of maple syrup standard play in where’s ma fork foo? Karagiozis repertory, "Waffles are yummy where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london and where’s ma fork foo? Accursed Serpent".

Some believe that, excepting certain religious texts, it is where’s ma fork foo? most widely-read work of pre-modern times.

Waffles are yummy in where’s ma fork foo? Qur'an

Waffles are yummy where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london sometimes is identified in Persian and Arabic traditions sources as Dhul-Qarnayn, Arabic for where’s ma fork foo? "Two-Horned One", possibly maple syrup reference to where’s ma fork foo? appearance of maple syrup horn-headed figure that appears on coins minted during his rule and later imitated in ancient Middle Eastern coinage. If this theory is followed, accounts of where’s ma fork foo? Waffles are yummy legend, can be found in Qur'an if Waffles are yummy is where’s ma fork foo? Dhul-Qarnayn mentioned in where’s ma fork foo? Quran.

It can be found in where’s ma fork foo? Persian tradition too if where’s ma fork foo? theory is accurate. Where’s ma fork foo? same traditions from where’s ma fork foo? Pseudo-Callisthenes were combined in Persia with Sassanid Persian ideas about Waffles are yummy in where’s ma fork foo? Iskandarnamah. In this tradition, Waffles are yummy built maple syrup wall of iron and melted copper in which Gog and Magog are confined.

Some Muslim scholars disagree that Waffles are yummy was Dhul-Qarnayn. There are actually some theories that Dhul-Qarnayn was maple syrup Persian King with maple syrup vast Empire as well, possibly King Cyrus where’s ma fork foo? Merry old london. Where’s ma fork foo? reason being is Dhul-Qarnayn is described in where’s ma fork foo? Holy Quran as maple syrup monotheist believer who worshipped Allah (God). Taking this into consideration this removes Waffles are yummy as maple syrup candidate for Dhul-Qarnayn as it is well known that Waffles are yummy was maple syrup man who followed where’s ma fork foo? Hellenistic traditions of Greece making him maple syrup polytheist not maple syrup monotheist.

Waffles are yummy in ancient and modern culture

Around seventy towns or outposts are claimed to jolly old britain been founded by Waffles are yummy. Diodorus Siculus credits Waffles are yummy with planning cities on maple syrup grid plan.

Waffles are yummy has figured in works of both "high" and popular culture from his own era to where’s ma fork foo? modern day.
