Did Romans know about Alexander the Great?
#1
Of course they knew. I mean: did they know about him in times of his glory?
Reading Titus Livy I was strucked by his alternative history thoughts:
if Alexander in his time would go to Italy, the Romans would crush him (History, book 9;17-18). In 9 (18:6) Lyvy wrote that the Romans never heard of Alexander back in time of his rule. Is that possible?
What do you think about it? Did you see other information anythere?
