No ruler in antiquity appeals to the imagination as much as Alexander the Great (356 BC - 323 BC, king from 336 BC). From his youth he inspired the people around him. During his campaigns in the East, Alexander went in search of the origins of Dionysus, who, according to the ancient Greeks, came from the exotic East, possibly India. Alexander followed in Dionysus's footsteps and reached many countries: Egypt, Syria, Bactria, Persia, India and Mongolia. Everywhere he founded new capitals and named them all Alexandria. He left behind a legacy of Greek culture in the form of Hellenism. His fame lived on, long after antiquity. He was an example to many European, Russian and Islamic rulers. Paintings, tapestries and decorative art depicted Alexander's life and history. The exhibition covers all these aspects, with objects from classical antiquity to the modern age, of Western and non-Western origins.

Alexander the Great and the Campaign of Gaugamela New Research on Topography and Chronology. IAMNI 1 (Italian Archaeological Mission to Northern Iraq)
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2025 Paperback, Pages: xviii + 110 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:14 b/w, 28 col., 3 tables b/w., 21 maps color, Language:English, *new. ISBN 9782503616261.
The Battle of Gaugamela, in which Alexander the Great?s army faced the Persian army of King Darius III in 331 BCE, remains a famous date in history, the last battle that led to Alexander?s conquest of the Achaemenid Empire. However, the topography and chronology of the campaign have, up to now, remained little studied. Taking these two elements as its starting point, this volume draws both on the latest archaeological research in the region and on recent advances in science (in particular GIS) to offer a completely new reconstruction of the Gaugamela campaign, arguing for a much shorter campaign than has hitherto been understood. By turning the spotlight for the first time onto the geographical and topographical context of the campaign, the author here also provides a new understanding of both the scale of Alexander?s military achievement and the long-term effects of the military reforms introduced by his father, Philip II.
