ALEJANDRO MAGNO

                                   ALEJANDRO MAGNO

(Alejandro III) Rey de Macedonia nació en Pella, Macedonia en el año 356 a.C y murió en Babilonia en el año 323 a. C. Alejandro Magno dedicó los primeros años de su reinado a imponer su autoridad sobre los pueblos sometidos a Macedonia, que habían aprovechado la muerte de Filipo para rebelarse. Alejandro recorrió victorioso el Asia Menor (batalla de Gránico, 334), Siria (Issos, 333), Fenicia (asedio de Tiro, 332), Egipto y Mesopotamia (Gaugamela, 331), hasta tomar las capitales persas de Susa (331) y Persépolis (330).

Una vez conquistada la capital de los persas, Alejandro licenció a las tropas griegas que le habían acompañado durante la campaña y se hizo proclamar emperador ocupando el puesto de los Aqueménidas. Enseguida lanzó nuevas campañas de conquista hacia el este: derrotó y dio muerte a Bessos y sometió Partia, Aria, Drangiana, Aracosia, Bactriana y Sogdiana. Con la conquista del Imperio Persa, Alejandro descubrió el grado de civilización de los orientales, a los que antes había tenido por bárbaros. Concibió entonces la idea de unificar a los griegos con los persas en un único imperio en el que convivieran bajo una cultura de síntesis (año 324). Para ello integró un gran contingente de soldados persas en su ejército, organizó en Susa la «boda de Oriente con Occidente» (matrimonio simultáneo de miles de macedonios con mujeres persas) y él mismo se casó con dos princesas orientales: una princesa de Sogdiana y la hija de Darío III.

La temprana muerte de Alejandro a los 33 años, víctima del paludismo, le impidió consolidar el imperio que había creado y relanzar sus conquistas. El imperio no sobrevivió a la muerte de su creador.

THE TALAIOTS OR TAYALOTS


The talaiots, or talayots, are broze age megaliths on the islands of minorca and majorca forming part of the  talaiotic Culture or Talaiotic Period. They date back to the late second millennium and early first millennium BC. There are at least 274 of them, in, near, or related to Talaiotic settlements and Talaiotic navetes. While some certainly had a defensive purpose, the use of others is not clearly understood. Some believe them to have served the purpose of lookout or signalling towers, as on Minorca, where they form a network. These monuments pre-date the taulas, which are usually found nearby.
