Khaire,
something that resulted from the 'Jesus in Japan' thread...
Another name for Alexander was Sikander
I checked out the meaning of Sikh.....all Sikh men have the religious name of Singh...which means 'lion'
The Sikh faith had it's origins fairly recently compared with most, but takes it's beliefs from much earlier..
Scroll down to the fresco on this page (second picture down).....and look at the guy on the left
http://www.sarbloh.info/htmls/faith_sanatan.html
I read somewhere that 'chandra' was another name of Alexander....
Chand/ra means something like 'shining as the moon', but Chandra can mean 'golden' or 'golden hued'.
If Alexander was fair skinned he would have appeared 'golden' to the more dusky Asians. Or maybe it was his shining panolpy...?
Another one of those coincidences or something more?
regards
Arthes

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
