by Various

Theme: At the Point of the Sarissa
When Alexander fell ill at Babylon, he was lord of a massive but fragile empire and commander of a large, experienced army, but lacked a ready heir. On his deathbed, the warrior king was reported to have said that his empire should pass 'to the strongest' (Arrian 7.26.3, Diodorus 17.117.4), anticipating the violent struggle for power that consumed subsequent decades.
Theme articles include:
* The Hypaspist Corps
* Jewish soldiers in Hellenistic armies
* The Rise and Fall of the Achaean League
* The Silver Shields after Alexander
