He’s often portrayed as someone who had anger issues, but are these just slanders made up by enemy?
It’s said that Alexander killed Cleitus -the man who once saved his life- during a drunken outburst, and that afterward he fell into deep regret and even tried to kill himself, but his soldiers stopped him.
I’m really curious about how this story actually happened. I honestly don’t believe that someone like him, who was trained by Aristotle (Who was also a Zevist and now a god), and who regularly communicated with the Gods, would act like that out of pure rage.
My other question is whether Ptolemy I was a Zevist too. He protected Alexander’s body and buried him with a grand ceremony in Memphis. He also embraced Alexandria and Alexander’s legacy, turning Egypt into the stronghold of Hellenistic civilization.
But what really bothers me is how he wasn’t loyal to Alexander’s family.
He fought against Eumenes -who was a Zevist and a strong supporter of the royal bloodline- and that indirectly led to Eumenes’ death. He never offered Roxana any political or military support. He was also the first one to give up on the idea of preserving the unity of the kingdom.
If anyone knows more about this questions, could you share it with me...
