I guess this will throw fuel to the Macedonian naming debate fire: http://www.findingdulcinea.com/news/Europe/20...

Funny, but total bull. There are two chances of Alexander the G. being in Aussieland, and slim's out of town.

Well all I can say is start looking on google earth...if Lou Batalis is still alive (regardless of his memory), then why not interview him directly!? The story is obviously promoting the doco, and we will just have to wait see, surely what ever it was that was in ancient greek you can bet on it that the greeks took 100% possession of this and guard it's secret. |

Why guard the secret? Why not announce it to the world and have the tomb, if it is Alexander the Great's, well protected?

Judged: 1 1 1 The Greeks would then have to admit Alexander The Great was Macedonian! |
|
Did they ever answer the question: "Who is buried in Grant's tomb?"

I don't get how he would have gotten all they way down under.

Who cares, just another bum bandit...

Resting in Australia? Turning over in his grave is more like it.

I love conspiracy theories. But the whole "You didn't see this. This never happened"-line sounds a little too cinematic... i think somebody's pulling my leg.

Jimmy Dancer I would have to agree (and by the way I am neither Greek nor Macedonian) with you from documentaries I have watched it appears to me that Alexander was Macedonian, was he not known as the King of the Macedons'? aren't Macedons, Macedonians? can you explain why is it that Greeks think Alexander was Greek? As for the topic I really do not think that it is true..why would Alexander be left here unless.... if that is the case then Macedonians discovered Australia not the British nor the Dutch, nor the Portuguese... We would have to rewrite our whole history wouldn't we, at least a good chunk? Conspiracies....... Love' em |

Maybe his particular brand of funk particularly offended the Macedonians, and they were well sick of him even before he was dead? Just another conspiracy theory I guess. |

Maybe the Greeks thought he said 'I am Alexander the Greek', when he actually said 'I am Alexander the Great'! |

Judged: 1 1 1 He had a habit of using little boys foreskins as chewing gum. Lets not glorify a poof here. He died from prostate enlargment due to the thrashing in his bum hole. |

Judged: 1 1 Macedonia was one of the City States of Ancient Greece..eg. Corinthians, Thessally, Sparta, Athens et al. He united the Greeks and destroyed the Persian empire which had attcked the Greeks 100 years earlier. He spread Hellenism to the outer reaches of the known World.. Read some history FFS! |
