Do you know how Alexander the Great's Cause of Death

Alexander the Great, also known as Alexander III or Alexander of Macedonia, (born 356 BCE, Paella, Macedonia [northwest of Thessaloniki, Greece]—died June 13, 323 BCE, Babylon [Iraq]), king of Macedonia (336–323 BCE), who overthrew the Persian Empire, carried Macedonian arms to India, and laid the foundations for the Hellenistic world of territorial kingdoms. Already in his lifetime the subject of fabulous stories, he later became the hero of a full-scale legend bearing only the sketchiest resemblance to his historical career.

He was born in 356 BCE at Paella in Macedonia, the son of Philip II and Olympias. From age 13 to 16 he was taught by Aristotle, who inspired him with an interest in philosophy, medicine, and scientific investigation, but he was later to advance beyond his teacher’s narrow precept that non-Greeks should be treated as slaves. Left in charge of Macedonia in 340 during Philip’s attack on Byzantium, Alexander defeated the MAEDI, a Thracian people. Two years later he commanded the left wing at the Battle of Chaperone, in which Philip defeated the allied Greek states, and displayed personal courage in breaking the Sacred Band of Thebes, an elite military corps composed of 150 pairs of lovers. A year later Philip divorced Olympias, and, after a quarrel at a feast held to celebrate his father’s new marriage, Alexander and his mother fled to Prius, and Alexander later went to Elyria. Shortly afterward, father and son were reconciled and Alexander returned, but his position as heir was jeopardized.

“The first symptom was severe abdominal pain, followed by fever and progressive degradation that lasted 14 days”, he said.

Malaria

Although the main symptom of his illness was fever, it was not the type of fever associated with malaria.

Pneumonia

Given that pneumonia rarely causes abdominal pain, Alexander’s symptoms do not fit with the disease. Moreover, when Alexander entered the Euphrates River, the fever was already present, and consequently, the cause of the fever was not the cold water.

Typhoid fever and West Nile virus

Gerasimides has also ruled out typhoid fever, as there was no epidermis at that time, as well as the West Nile virus, because it causes encephalitis rather than abdominal pain and delirium.

Poisoning

Moreover, there were no chemical poisons at that time. Gerasimides points out that "together with the professor of Toxicology, Nikolas Reiko, we searched and found that at that time there were 114 kinds of poisons. Substances like the curium that killed Socrates, strychnine, hydro cyanide etc. would cause death in a few hours. It wouldn't be possible for Alexander to survive for 14 days".

The death of Alexander the Great remains one of history’s unsolved mysteries, and although this recent study brings into light new information, even professor Germicides who conducted it accepts that indisputable evidence still remain to be revealed regarding: Alexander’s tomb, his mummified body and the forensic examination and autopsy.

Background

In February 323 BC, Alexander ordered his armies to prepare for the march to Babylon. According to Arian, after crossing the Tigris Alexander was met by Chaldean, who advised him not to enter the city because their deity Bell had warned them that to do so at that time would be fatal for Alexander. The Chaldean also warned Alexander against marching westwards as he would then look to the setting sun, a symbol of decline. It was suggested that he entered Babylon via the Royal Gate, in the western wall, where he would face to the east. Alexander followed this advice, but the route turned out to be unfavorable because of swampy terrain. According to Joan Rendering, "it seems that in May 323" the Babylonian astrologers tried to avert the misfortune by substituting Alexander with an ordinary person on the Babylonian throne, who would take the brunt of the omen. The Greeks, however, did not understand that ritual.
