LIFE AND EXPLOITS OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT by WM.HENRY CROSBY,Professor in RUTGERS COLLEGE BRUNSWICK 1854
MACEDONIA is GREECE and will always be GREECE- (if they are desperate to steal a name, Monkeydonkeys suits them just fine) ΚΑΤΩ Η ΣΥΓΚΥΒΕΡΝΗΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΠΡΟΔΟΤΩΝ!!! Strabo – “Geography” “There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.” (Strab. 7.fragments.9) ΚΚΕ, ΚΝΕ, ΟΝΝΕΔ, ΚΙΝΑΛ,ΝΕΑ,ΦΩΝΗ,ΦΕΚ,ΝΟΜΟΣ,LIFO,MACEDONIA, ALEXANDER, GREECE,IKEA

Strabo – “Geography”
“There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.”

v<strong>in</strong>culum solyisset," cupido <strong>in</strong>cessit animo sortis ejus implendae.<br />
3. Circa Regem erat et Phrygum turba, et Macedonum,<br />
ilia expectatione suspensa, hsec sollicita ex temeraria Regis<br />
12<br />
fiducia : quippe seriem v<strong>in</strong>culorum ita adstrictarn, ut unde<br />
nexus <strong>in</strong>ciperet, quove se conderet, nee ratione, nee visu percipi<br />
posset, solvere aggressus <strong>in</strong>jeeerat curam, ne <strong>in</strong> omen verteretur<br />
irritum <strong>in</strong>coeptum. Ille 13 nequaquam diu luctatus cum<br />
latentibus nodis, "Nihil," <strong>in</strong>quit, " <strong>in</strong>terest quomodo solvatur,"<br />
gladioque ruptis omnibus loris, oraculi sortem vel elusit, vel<br />
implevit. Cum de<strong>in</strong>de Darium, ubicumque esset, occupare<br />
statuisset, ut a tergo u tuta rel<strong>in</strong>queret, Amphoterum classi ad<br />
oram Hellesponti, copiis autem praefecit Hegelochum, Lesbum,<br />
et Chium, et Con, praesidiis hostium 15 liberaturos. His 16 talenta<br />
ad belli usum qu<strong>in</strong>genta attributa :<br />
ad Antipatrum, et eos<br />
qui Graecas urbes tuebantur, sexcenta missa : ex foedere naves<br />
17<br />
sociis imperatse, quae Hellesponto praesiderent. Nondum<br />
enim Memnonem vita, excessisse cognoverat, <strong>in</strong> quem omnes<br />
<strong>in</strong>tenderat curas ; satis gnarus, cuncta <strong>in</strong> expedito fore, si<br />
nihil ab eo moveretur. Jamque ad urbem Ancyram ventum<br />
erat, ubi numero copiarum <strong>in</strong>ito, Paphlagoniam <strong>in</strong>trat. Huic<br />
juncti erant Heneti, unde quidam Venetos trahere orig<strong>in</strong>em<br />
credunt : omnis hsec regio paruit Regi, datisque obsidibus,<br />
tributum (quod ne Persis quidem tulissent) pendere ne cogerentur,<br />
impetraverunt. Calas huic regioni propositus est. Ipse,<br />
assumptis, qui ex Macedonia nuper advenerant, Cappadociam<br />
petiit.<br />
II. 4. At Darius, nunciata Memnonis morte, haud seeds<br />
quam par erat, motus, omissa omni alia spe, J<br />
statuit ipse decernere,<br />
quippe quae per duces suos acta erant, cuncta damnabat<br />
; ratus, pluribus curam, omnibus abfuisse fortunam. Igitur<br />
castris ad Ba<strong>by</strong>lonem positis, quo majore animo capesserent<br />
bellum, universas vires <strong>in</strong> conspectum dedit ; et 2 circumdato<br />
vallo, quod decern millium armatorum multitud<strong>in</strong>em caperet,<br />
Xerxis exemplo, numerum copiarum <strong>in</strong>iit.<br />
