Eumenes of Cardia was a Greek general and scholar who came to Alexander’s court by an unusual route. At a very early age he was employed as private secretary by Philip II of Macedon, and after Philip’s assassination in 336 BC, by Alexander himself, whom he accompanied into Asia.
Ο Ζαχαρίας Βογιατζόπουλος υπήρξε κεντρική μορφή στην ιστορία της μεταπολεμικής ελληνικής μετανάστευσης προς την Αυστραλία, συνδέοντας τη δράση του τόσο με τη ΔΕΜΕ (Διακυβερνητική Επιτροπή Μεταναστεύσεως εξ Ευρώπης / ICEM) όσο και με το Bonegilla Migrant Reception and Training Centre στη Βικτώρια της Αυστραλίας.
We continue analysing the lives and achievements of three bodyguards and high ranked officers in Alexander the Great’s army that conquered Asia Minor, the Persian Empire, even India before he faced a revolt within his army who were getting tired and missed their families back home. Very interesting stories of struggle, bravery and survival of the fittest.
