Life Of Alexander The Great #27 – The Founding Of Alexandria

Alexander visits the Oracle of Siwah to ask your usual questions: “Who is my father” and “Am I fated to rule the world” – you know, that ol' thing.

On his way he sees a patch of land and thinks to himself “Hey how about I found the greatest city in the world here and then name it after myself?” – which he then proceeds to do.
