9. 8.1. Decessit Philippus XL et septem annorum, cum annis XXV regnasset. (2) Genuit ex Larissaea saltatrice filium Arridaeum, qui post Alexandrum regnavit. (3) Habuit et multos alios filios ex variis matrimoniis regio more susceptos, qui partim fato, partim ferro periere. (4) Fuit rex armorum quam conviviorum apparatibus studiosior, (5) cui maximae opes erant instrumenta bellorum; divitiarum quaestu quam custodia sollertior. (6) Itaque inter cotidianas rapinas semper inops erat. (7) Misericordia in eo et perfidia pari iure dilectae. Nulla apud eum turpis ratio vincendi. (8) Blandus pariter et insidiosus, adloquio qui plura promitteret quam praestaret; in seria et iocos artifex. (9) Amicitias utilitate, non fide colebat. Gratiam fingere in odio, instruere inter concordantes odia, apud utrumque gratiam quaerere sollemnis illi consuetudo. (10) Inter haec eloquentia et insignis oratio, acuminis et sollertiae plena, ut nec ornatui facilitas nec facilitati inventionum deesset ornatus. (11) Huic Alexander filius successit et virtute et vitiis patre maior. (12) Itaque vincendi ratio utrique diversa. Hic aperta, ille artibus bella tractabat. Deceptis ille gaudere hostibus, hic palam fusis. (13) Prudentior ille consilio, hic animo magnificentior. (14) Iram pater dissimulare, plerumque etiam vincere; hic ubi exarsisset, nec dilatio ultionis nec modus erat. (15) Vini nimis uterque avidus, sed ebrietatis diversa vitia. Patri mos erat etiam de convivio in hostem procurrere, manum conserere, periculis se temere offerre; Alexander non in hostem, sed in suos saeviebat. (16) Quam ob rem saepe Philippum vulneratum proelia remisere, hic amicorum interfector convivio frequenter excessit. (17) Regnare ille cum amicis nolebat, hic in amicos regna exercebat. Amari pater malle, hic metui. (18) Litterarum cultus utrique similis. Sollertiae pater maioris, hic fidei. (19) Verbis atque oratione Philippus, hic rebus moderatior. (20) Parcendi victis filio animus et promptior et honestior. Frugalitati pater, luxuriae filius magis deditus erat. (21) Quibus artibus orbis imperii fundamenta pater iecit, operis totius gloriam filius consummavit. [A contrast of Philip and Alexander]

Badian, Ernst, 'A Note on the "Alexander Mosaic"' in The Eye Expanded: Life and the Arts in Greco-

Roman Antiquity, edd. Frances B. Titchener and Richard F. Moorton, Jr. (UofC Press; Berkeley, 1999) 86-88. [See under Holt below.]

NOTE: The "dead" tree next to young Alexander [on his left in the façade of Philip II’s tomb at Vergina] resembles in a way the tree [by the left side of Alexander] in the Alexander Mosaic [which E. Badian would call the Darius Mosaic. It is true that Dareios' figure stands tall, but Dareios appears to be in a state of anxiety, whereas Alexander with a fixed look eyes the enemy, as he spears through a Persian with his long sarissa [For Alexander's pose, cf., e.g., The Archaeology of Athens and Attica under the Democracy, eds. W.D.E. Coulson, O. Palagia, T.L. Shear, Jr., H.A. Shapiro and F.J. Frost (Oxbow Monograph 37, 1994) 132, Fig. 2. Bl°pontew mØ bl°pein, Polybios 12.24.6: bl°pontaw mØ bl°pein]. This motif of 'Alexander-"dead" tree' appears also in a close parallel in the lion hunt mosaic from Palermo (Cohen, below, 77, Fig. 48; see above), for the young rider by the dead tree about to spear the lion has been identified as Alexander (Cohen, below, 76). The "dead" tree by Alexander is an artistic motif of identification, and one may recall Alexander's oak tree at Chaironeia mentioned by Plutarch in Alexander 9.2: ¶ti d¢ ka‹ kay' hmçw §de¤knuto palaiå parå tÚn KhfisÚn ÉAlejãndrou kaloum°nh drËw, prÚw ¥n tÒte kateskÆnvse, ka‹ tÚ poluãndrion oÈ pÒrrv tvn MakedÒnvn §st€n. Moreover, the "dead" tree projects Alexander's image more than a living tree with foliage would have done, and at the same time the Persian concentration magnifies Alexander's odds of victory. As for Alexander being depicted in the mosaic bare-headed, cf. Nikolaos of Myra in Andrew Erskine, “Life after Death: Alexandria and the Body of Alexander, Greece&Rome 49.2 (October 2002) 176: <<… He (=Alexander) built his city (=Alexandria) near the sea, which he himself stands near.  And the form of the statue reveals his nature. First, he is carried riding high on a horse; not a horse that anyone could easily ride, but one suitable to the dangers that he faced.  And the animal’s vehemence evokes the speed of his campaigns.  Next, he has no helmet on his head.  For he who intends to subdue and survey the whole earth has no need of helmets.  Everything he has seized in his advance seems to lie in his eyes.  … His hair, unconfined, streams in the wind and onward rush of the horse.  Its locks appear  like the rays of the sun. …>>.  [Note 54 therein: Ps. Libanius, Progymnasmata 27, etc.]  (copied with minor changes from Makedonis I: Alexandros-Philippos-Kleitos o Melas [web site herein])

reply: It is overlabored a little to defend positions taken, although one would agree with him [at the end] that different images of Alexander may emerge, but these images must rest on solid evidence and not on mere speculation [or overstretching of the evidence in order to obtain desirable results, in this instance to show how bad Alexander was, because his behavior deviates from contemporary, recognized "norms"].

P. 125: “Philip II was the son of an Illyrian woman”.  An incorrect statement which undermines in a way Baynham’s argument(s) therein [cf. this writer’s article in the AncW 25.1 (1994)  9-14: Sirras].  The citing also of Alexander’s mother, Olympias, who descended from the “Molossian royal house”, for support of her  line of thought, is weak, since both Olympias and Philip II descended from royal houses that traced their lineage to the great heroes Achilles and Herakles [so their marriage is not foreign, as this may be understood, for it originates from within the “system”, so-to-speak; that is, from a common cultural experience].

Anabasis Alexandrou (Cambridge Univ. Press, 1993).

Hammond, N.G.L., "The Meaning of Arrian, Anabasis 7.9.5," JHS 119 (1999) 166-168. Hammond

translates and analyzes 7.9.5, with the view that Makedonia is the "excluded part" of thw êllhw ÑEllãdow therein [p. 167]. However, the full phrase is sumpãshw thw êllhw ÑEllãdow, which may include Makedonia, too [ÉArx. ÉEfhm. 1993 (1995) 21-22, E], although from the passage it appears the excluded part is PelopÒnnhson [cf. also Alexander I to the Athenians at Plataiai in Herodotos, IX.45: oÈ går ¶legon, ei mØ megãlvw §khdÒmhn sunapãshw thw ÑEllãdow, ktl., by which sunapãshw Alexander I probably includes also Makedonia (ÉArx. ÉEfhm. 1993 [1995] 24, under N)]. As cited by Hammond [p. 167], a distinction of Hellas and Peloponnesos is found in Demosthenes, PERI THS PARAPRESBEIAS 303: t¤w o suskeuãzesyai tØn ÑEllãda ka‹ PelopÒnnhson F¤lippon bovn, Ímçw d¢ kayeÊdein; Some lines before 7.9.5, Alexander seems to exclude Thessalia from Hellas and that Hellas (ÑEllãda) began with the Phokians or perhaps after their country [7.9.4]. Moreover, from this last passage, it appears that as far at it concerned Alexander Hellas (ÑEllãda) was ÉAyhna¤ouw te ka¤ Yhba¤ouw, the two enemies of Makedonia. Finally, Alexander's apparent exclusion of Peloponnesos from the rest of Hellas [7.9.5 herein] may appear to be an "absurdity", but he probably has the Lakedaimonians in mind who could be equated in a way with the Peloponnesos [cf. Iliad IX. 335-336: …, §meË (=ÉAxill°vw) d' épÚ moÊnou ÉAxaivn/ e·let' (=ÉAgam°mnvn g°raw), ¶xei d' êloxon (wife/concubine, for rhetorical effect) yumar°a; A. B. Bosworth, From Arrian to Alexander: Studies in Historical Interpretation (Clarendon Press, Oxford 1988) 111-112]. It should also be borne in mind that Alexander's speech at Opis belongs to the year 324 B.C. and the Makedones hearing it were thousands of miles away from events at home which had happened some years earlier.
