Hello everybody,I wonder what do you know about the indian myth of Sikander (Alexander). What's the meaning of this name and what's the difference between Sikander and Iskander?
Regards

I've done some work in Alexander in Indian legend, but it involves quite a lot of sanskrit. If you are interested I can send you more details.RegardsSusan

Demi Iskantar and Sikantar are the same.in grammatology is very easy in years the first letters to change place.You must know that Alexander in india is much alike a christian saint and like Budda.From him the christian saints took the light upon their head.
