That was apparently the way in which bodies were mummified in Babylon, where he died, using honey and wax.

The one thing that seems certain, amidst this welter of confusion about the location of his remains, is that they never reached Macedonia.

His wife Roxanne and his posthumously born son, Alexander IV, did go back there, but they were murdered when the boy was 12.

He wished to see his mother Olympia but couldn't. He loved her more than anything and anyone...Though cvs showed him murdering her in a illusion sequence in this show which was foolish.

She was a descendant of Alexander's close friend and general Ptolemy. Her brother was the last Pharaoh of Egypt, at the time when Julius Caesar went there.

Yes, that was an idiotic sequence.

It is a very great pity that he could not see Olympia before he died, for both of them. She tried her best to protect his son, but then she was assassinated.

I loved the highly emotional farewell scene between Alexander and his mother, when he says that she is, for him, above everything else: his life, his goal, his dream.
