Alexander: The Son of Amun and the Crown of the Nile - Ep. 20

After destroying Tyre and Gaza, Alexander turned toward Egypt, a key region for securing supplies, wealth, and naval security. The Persian satrap surrendered without a fight, and the Macedonian was welcomed as a liberator. In Memphis, he honored the Egyptian gods, was crowned pharaoh, and consolidated political and religious power. He founded Alexandria as a center of the Hellenistic world and, at Siwa, was proclaimed “Son of Amun.” With Egypt pacified, he left the Nile behind and moved toward the final confrontation with Darius.
