Has anyone seen the movie on Alexander the Great? They don't tell this stuff in movies, but when Alexander first arrived in Anatolia; he jumped off his ship & threw his spear towards the seashore. I have heard that when the spear landed on the shore, Alexander screamed something around the lines of; "Asia, you are mine". Later, the Greek armies marched to the site of the Trojan War. According to some accounts; Alexander disposed of his armor & weapons, & instead took the armor & weapons of fallen Greek heroes at the site of the Trojan War. Apparently, he believed that by acquiring their weapons; their spirits would help in the Greek's struggle against Persia.
