"King of Greece, Pharaoh of Egypt, Ruler of Persia GÇô these are the titles of the man ...."How about "King of Macedonia"?Poor Aleks, he'll be turning in his grave.

It actually is a stupid idea fostered by some equaly stupid people with a very bad taste for art!The good news is that this project was rejected quite a few years ago, as it was impossible to receive approval from the Greek environmental or archaeological authorities...
