Alexander the Great and the Amazon Queen

Post by Sweetmemory41 »

Adrienne Mayor of Stanford University delivered a fascinating lecture at the University of Mary Washington in 2015 titled ‘Alexander the Great and the Amazons.’ Using the evidence from modern archaeology, ancient literature, art, folklore, and foreign historical traditions, she presents a case for the possibility that Alexander did have a 13-day affair with a warrior queen.

Please note that the lecture is about 75 minutes long.
