How do they know the remains are those of Alexander the Great’s father?

Did he have an ID card on him when he was buried?

Had he lived we would must likely be talking about Philip the Great, instead of Alexander the Great.

Was the father a Great Great or just a Great?

If so wouldn’t that make Alexander a Great jr?

Phillip was greater than Alexander.

Without Alexander, Phillip would still have historic achievements and be written in the books of history. Without Phillip, Alexander would have been nothing.

I am not dismissing the astounding person Alexander was, his amazing feats or what he achieved. I am just reminding people that the education, training and ambition Phillip gave Alexander was necessary for him to do what he did.

All too often, Phillip of Macedon is just a footnote in Alexander’s history.

King Phillip II’s Armor was rumored to be magical giving the wearer +3 on a dice roll to dexterity. I will assume his Vorpal Blade was already looted in the first chamber years ago by another player.
