Conquest of Egypt

Military: War

After successfully conquering Syria and the Levant Alexandros set out to invade Egypt where he was seen as a liberator. During their rule the Persian occupiers neglected many of the Kemetic temples, a crime that Alexandros would correct. He restored the temples and even erected new monuments for the Kemetic gods. As his army marched through the desert they came upon the oracle of Amun-Ra in Siwa. Here Alexandros' divine origins became once and for all clear as his was referred to as the son of Zeus-Ammon.
