Fool’s, Alex lies outside the walls of Babylon period. This remains a scramble for grant, research and fame, end of discourse. This guys looks like a clown BTW

Oh geez....it’s Uncle Bill. He’s pulling that old archeological scam again.
“I’ve found Alexander’s tomb!”
“Looks an awful lot like an old refrigerator to me.”
And tell all the college girls to watch out if he asks them if they would like to see, “The Great Sphinx”. He spent a couple of years in the pokey in Argentina for that bit.

BTW, how many people do you have to kill and how much power do you have to steal to be called “Great”??

As good a theory as any other I suppose. But searching for Alex’ body in the Republic of Macedonia strikes me as akin to the drunk looking for his lost car keys under a street lamp because the light is better there.

Wasn’t there a theory that the tomb that is considered to be for Philip of Macedonia may actually house Alex (or maybe have been constructed with that intent)?
