Alexander again?
#10
Khairete,
so would the general opinion be that the mosaic does portray Alexander as Apollo?
Alexander as a son of Zeus would have represented Apollo, the son of Zeus by Leto, his sister Cleopatra, would have been Artemis.
Ammon 'the hidden one' later incorporated into Amen Ra, the sun god.

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
