Greetings,
Is anyone here familiar with Meeus's paper on Kleopatra and the Diadochi? Thoughts?

Re: Kleopatra
Alexander has written quite a few papers relating to the ambitions, alliances and power plays of the Diadochi. The Territorial Ambitions of Ptolemy I is a good adjunct to his Kleopatra. Friendship and Betrayal: The Alliances Among the Diadochi is another worth the read. Of course, that which started the ball rolling The Power Struggle in Babylon, 322BC, underpins it all. That and more found on his Academia page.
Still awaiting the publication of his Dissertation on The History of the Diadochi in Diodrus Book XIX.

Wicked men, you sin against your fathers, who conquered the whole world under Philip and Alexander.
