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

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.”

30 QUINTI CURTII<br />

tilem cum pecunia traderet, adjecit.<br />

Parmenio, asservari eo<br />

jusso, litteras aperit : <strong>in</strong> queis erat scriptum, ut mature Alexander<br />

aliquem ex ducibus suis mitteret cum manu exigua.<br />

Itaque re cognita, Mardum datis 3 comitibus ad proditorem<br />

remittit. Ille, e manibus custodientium lapsus, Damascum<br />

ante lucem <strong>in</strong>trat. Turbaverat ea res Parmenionis animum<br />

<strong>in</strong>sidias timentis et ignotum iter s<strong>in</strong>e duce non 4 audebat <strong>in</strong>gredi.<br />

Felicitati tamen Regis sui confisus, agrestes, 6 qui<br />

duces it<strong>in</strong>eris essent, excipi jussit : quibus<br />

celeriter repertis,<br />

quarto die ad urbem pervenit, jam metuente Praefecto, ne sibi<br />

fides habita non esset. Igitur, quasi parum munimentis oppidi<br />

fidens, ante solis ortum pecuniam regiam, (gazam Persae vocant,)<br />

cum pretiosissimis rerum efferri jubet, fugam simulanSj<br />

revera ut prsedam hosti offerret. ,<br />

sequebantur ;<br />

6<br />

omnibus miserabilis turba, praeter emu,<br />

cujus fidei commissa fuerat: quippe, quo major proditionis<br />

merces foret, objicere hosti parabat gratiorem omni pecunia<br />

praedam, nobiles 7 viros, Prsetorum Darii conjuges liberosque<br />

j<br />

prseter hos, urbium Graecarum legatos, quos Darius velut <strong>in</strong><br />

arce tutissima, <strong>in</strong> proditoris reliquerat manibus. Gangabas<br />

Persae vocant humeris onera portantes :<br />

hi cum frigus tolerare<br />

non possent (quippe et procella subito nivem effuderat, et humus<br />

rigebat gelu) turn 8 astrictas vestes, quas cum pecunia<br />

portabant, auro et purpura <strong>in</strong>signes, <strong>in</strong>duunt, nullo<br />

auso ;<br />

Praebuere ergo Parmenioni non spernendi agm<strong>in</strong>is<br />

speciem, qui 10 <strong>in</strong>tentiore cura suos, quasi ad n justum praelium,<br />

paucis adhortatus, equis calcaria subdere jubet, et acri<br />

impetu <strong>in</strong> hostem <strong>in</strong>vehi. At illi, qui sub oneribus erant,<br />

omissis illis per metum, capessunt fugam. Armati quoque,<br />

qui eos sequebantur, eodem metu arma jactare, ac nota diverticula<br />

petere coeperunt. Praefectus quasi et ipse conterritus,<br />

simul cuncta pavore compleverat. Jacebant totis campis<br />
