This book explores one of the most compelling historical enigmas - the death, burial, and posthumous fate of Alexander the Great. With a sharp eye for detail and careful comparative analysis, the author revisits ancient testimonies, archaeological discoveries, and medical evidence. At the heart of this investigation lies a bold hypothesis: that the mysterious mummy discovered in tomb KV62 - known to modern science as the 'Living Image of Amon' - may, in fact, be the preserved body of Alexander himself. Without naming this figure directly, the book reconstructs the circumstances surrounding his death and traces the journey of his remains across centuries of political ambition, myth-making, and reverence. A work that combines historical scholarship with investigative storytelling, it invites readers to reconsider what they thought they knew about one of history's most iconic leaders.
