Quote:It is, indeed, a fantastic drawing and I am a great fan of your artwork.There is still much debate in this,wich means not "most people" believe anything.The most popular candidates are Philip,Aridaeos and even Alexander himself.No further analysis on the bones is allowed(don't know why),so there is no way we can be sure about anything really.All parties have many convincing points(yes,even those who supposrt Alexander have some good points) and I find it suspicious that the museum does not allow additional analysis with newer technology.Also I was dissapointed that the bones are no more in display in the new museum in Vergina.
Perhaps I am wrong but I was under the impression that most people now believed that cuirass to belong to Arridhaeus rather than Phillip II?
