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.”

12 QUINTI CURTII<br />
que currvis latus deorum simulacra ex auro argentoque expressa<br />
decorabant : dist<strong>in</strong>guebant <strong>in</strong>ternitentes gemmse jugum, ex<br />
quo em<strong>in</strong>ebant duo aurea 18 simulacra cubitalia<br />
;<br />
quorum alterum<br />
N<strong>in</strong>i, alterum Beli gerebat effigiem. Inter haec auream<br />
aquilam, 19 p<strong>in</strong>nas extendenti similem, sacraverant.<br />

tunicae medium albo <strong>in</strong>textum erat. Pallam auro dist<strong>in</strong>ctam<br />
aurei accipitres, velut rostris <strong>in</strong>ter se corruerent,<br />
adornabant : et zona aurea muliebriter c<strong>in</strong>ctus ac<strong>in</strong>acem suspenderat,<br />
cui 21 ex gemma erat vag<strong>in</strong>a.<br />

Cydarim Persae<br />
regium capitis vocabant <strong>in</strong>signe : hoc caerulea fascia albo dist<strong>in</strong>cta<br />
circumibat. Currum decern millia hastatorum sequebantur<br />
; hastas argento exornatas, spicula auro praefixa gestabant.<br />
Dextra laevaque Eegem ducenti ferme nobilissimi prop<strong>in</strong>quorum<br />
comitabantur. Horum agmen claudebatur trig<strong>in</strong>ta<br />
millibus peditum, quos equi Regis quadr<strong>in</strong>genti sequebantur.<br />
Intervallo de<strong>in</strong>de, unius stadii, matrem Darii Sysigambim<br />
curras vehebat, et <strong>in</strong> alio erat conjux. Turba foem<strong>in</strong>arum<br />
Reg<strong>in</strong>as comitantium equis vectabatur.<br />
Qu<strong>in</strong>decim <strong>in</strong>de, quas<br />
23<br />
armamaxas appellant, sequebantur. In his erant liberi<br />
Regis, et qui educabant eos, spadonumque grex, haud sane<br />
illis gentibus vilis. Turn regiao pellices trecentae sexag<strong>in</strong>ta<br />
vehebantur, et ipsae regali cultu, ornatuque : post quas pecuniam<br />
Regis, sexcenti muli, et trecenti cameli vehebant ;* praesidio<br />
sagittariorum prosequente, Prop<strong>in</strong>quorum amicorumque<br />
conjuges<br />
huic agm<strong>in</strong>i proximae, 24 lixarumque et calonum<br />
greges vehebantur. Ultimi erant cum suis quisque ducibus,<br />
qui cogerent agmen, leviter armati. Contra si quis aciem<br />
Macedonum <strong>in</strong>tueretur, dispar acies erat equis virisque non<br />
auro,. non discolori veste, sed ferro atque aere fulgentibus.<br />
Agmen et stare paratum, et sequi, 25 nec turba, nee sarc<strong>in</strong>is<br />
praegrave, <strong>in</strong>tentum ad ducis non signum modo, sed etiam nuturn.<br />
Et castris locus, et exercitui commeatus suppetebant.<br />
Ergo Alexandro <strong>in</strong> acie miles non defuit.<br />
Darius autem tantas<br />
multitud<strong>in</strong>is Rex, loci, <strong>in</strong> quo pugnavit, angustiis, redactus<br />
est ad paucitatem, quam <strong>in</strong> hoste contempserat.
