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.”

18 QUINTI CURTII<br />
Jamque Alexander viribus corporis receptis, ad urbem Solos<br />
pervenerat : cujus potitus, ducentis talentis nom<strong>in</strong>e 2 mulctae<br />
exactis, arci<br />
praesidium militum imposuit.<br />
s<br />
Vota de<strong>in</strong>de pro<br />
salute suscepta per ludum atque otium reddens, ostendit<br />
quanta fiducia barbaros sperneret : quippe iEsculapio et M<strong>in</strong>ervae<br />
ludos cel'ebravit. Spectanti 4 nuncius laetus affertur<br />
ex Halicarnasso, " Persas acie a suis esse superatos, Myndios<br />
quoque et Caunios, et pleraque tract us ejus, suae facta<br />
ditionis." Igitur edito spectaculo ludicro, castrisque<br />
motis, et Pyramo amne ponte juncto, ad urbem Mallon pervenit<br />
: <strong>in</strong>de B alteris castris ad oppidum Castabaluni. Ibi<br />
Parmenio Regi occurrit, quern praemiserat ad explorandum<br />
iter saltus, per quern ad urbem, Isson nom<strong>in</strong>e, penetrandum<br />
erat. Atque ille angustiis ejus occupatis, et praesidio modico<br />
relicto, Isson quoque desertam a barbaris ceperat. Inde progressus,<br />
6 deturbatis, qui <strong>in</strong>teriora montium obsidebant, prsesidiis<br />
cuncta firmavit :<br />
occupatoque it<strong>in</strong>ere, sicut paulo ante dictum<br />
est, 7<br />
idem et auctor et nuncius venit.<br />
17. Isson <strong>in</strong>de Rex copias admovit: ubi consilio habito<br />
utrumne ultro progrediendum foret, an ibi opperiendi essent<br />
milites novi, quos ex Macedonia adventare constabat; Parmenio<br />
non alium locum prselio aptiorem esse censebat.<br />
Quippe illic utriusque Eegis copias numero futuras pares, cum<br />
angustiae multitud<strong>in</strong>em non caperent :<br />
planitiem ipsis camposque<br />
esse vitandos, ubi circumiri, ubi<br />
ancipiti acie opprimi possent<br />
:<br />
timere, ne non virtute hostium, sed lassitud<strong>in</strong>e sua v<strong>in</strong>cerentur<br />
:<br />

Persas recentes sub<strong>in</strong>de successuros, si laxius stare<br />
potuissent. Facile ratio tarn salubris consilii accepta est.<br />
Itaque <strong>in</strong>ter angustias saltvis opperiri statuit. Erat <strong>in</strong> exercitu<br />
Regis 9 Sis<strong>in</strong>es Perses, quondam a Praetore iEgypti missus<br />
ad Philippum ; donisque et omni honore cultus,<br />
10 exilium<br />
patria sede mutaverat : secutus de<strong>in</strong>de <strong>in</strong> Asiam Alexandrum,<br />
<strong>in</strong>ter fideles socios habebatur. Huic epistolam Cretensis miles<br />
obsignatam annulo, cujus signum Laud sane no turn erat, tradidit.<br />
Nabarzanes Praetor Darii miserat earn, hortabaturque<br />
Sis<strong>in</strong>em, ut dignum aliquid<br />
nobilitate ac moribus suis ederet<br />

magno id ei apud Regem honori fore.<br />
