Image of Alexander is copied from
the original sculpture by Euphranor.
History Makers: Alexander
When Alexander was only eight or nine years old, he tamed a horse that
none of his father’s grooms could manage. Alexander noticed that the
horse, Bucephalus, acted wild because he was afraid of his shadow.
By speaking to the horse gently and turning him to the sun, Alexander
was able to ride him. Seeing this, Philip told his son, “you’ll have to find
another kingdom; Macedonia isn’t going to be big enough for you.”
Alexander took his father’s advice. Riding Bucephalus at the head of an
army, he conquered a region from Greece to the Indus Valley.
When the horse died in what is now Pakistan, Alexander named the city
of Bucephala after it. Maybe he was tired of the name Alexandria. He had
already named at least a dozen cities after himself!
