Hello, I have recently started reading about Alexander, initially
having read Mary Renault's trilogy. The subject is fascinating
but with the amount of information available it can be
daunting trying to keep the facts straight!
Can anyone point me in the direction of an acurate (as far as
possible) family tree, there are lists of the main players and
their connectons, but havn't found a conventional diagramatic
representation.
Thank you
Alexander's family tree

When you think about, it free-choice is the only possible option.

Re: Alexander's family tree
There are also some very good geneological tables show not only the family tree of Alexander but of others connected with him, in "A History of Macedonia" by R. Malcolm Errington. U. of Calif Press 1990.
