Alexander took part of his army and fled from his companions and headed westward along the shore until he reached the Paraetonion (Marsa Matruh), then struck in the belly of the desert, and went to the temple of Amun in the Siwa oasis. Here we must ask why Alexander took the initiative as energy to meet Dara, who was undoubtedly the Macedonian conqueror of his enormous preparations, we believe that Alexander did not risk the visit, which was six weeks away from the Egyptian base, but a strong motivation. In fact, it shows us that Alexander wanted to achieve three goals behind this visit: first proving the connection with the gods, we believe that Alexander crowned himself Pharaohs in Memphis and tomorrow as such in the eyes of the Egyptians, but he has to prove to them but to the whole world that He was not only God but also the Son of God.


He was able to prove this in the Temple of the Good Lord without having difficulty going to the temple of Siwa if its purposes were local, that is limited to the sanctification of Sultan in the eyes of the Egyptians alone. But this was not the case. Alexander was on the verge of building a vast and vast empire that included elements from the East and the West, and he felt that his influence in his place required him to show himself to all that he was the King of God


Although Philkn and Tarn have betrayed Alexander the Pharaoh, they deny that he went to Siwa to prove his divine origin. The idea of ​​his divine birth grew out of the fact that the chief priest of Amon was the son of Amun.


This is a wondrous view that we can not recognize. How can this effect be the result of this call, and not as a result of his painting an opportunity and the accompanying bestowal of the pharaonic titles on him, "the son of Amun"?


Perhaps the lowest point is that this idea arose as a result of the claims of Olomibias that Alexander did not give birth to Philip, and then when he drew his branches in Memphis, this idea became the divine queen himself, especially that his teacher Aristotle had met him? The need for the man who is bad for all his citizens in the creation?


Since ancient links are close between the temple of Amun in ?? Who reside near it or distance from it in Forerian ?? Asia and the Greek European cities, especially Athens and ?? This temple has enjoyed for several centuries a global reputation that rivals what ?? In Dodona and the Temple of Apollo in Delphi. He saw Alexander ?? Although it was not even dedicated after the Temple of Taiba in the most important Egyptians was the best place to prove the link proportion of the gods in front of the opinion is not evidenced on the month of this temple of that Frobsus King ?? The Greek goddesses, and Pindanos, who gave an apology to Amun Siwa, and that the Greeks, such as the people of Alice, Sparta and Athens, sent the messengers to inspire the wolves and that Yeruipides spoke of the "non-rainy Amun" as if it were a familiar place The Greeks were rushing to Him whenever they needed divine advice, and the two Athenians completed the construction of a temple of the god Amun in Athens, and they called their sacred vessel Salaminta Ammonias, and that Eto'ovanis was raised in the "birds" of the temple of Amun in one Siwa, and that Plato has mentioned in his book about the laws and the revelation of Amon side by side and the revelation of Delphi and Dodona.


Alexander's second goal, behind his argument to the temple of Amun Siwa, was to get international public opinion to support the god of Amon for his endeavors to extend his sovereignty over the world. The third purpose was to satisfy his predilection for risk and his desire to follow the Greek mythological heroes of Perseus (Perseos) and Hercules, who believed that Alexander descended from the lineage. He replied in the myth that these two demons are provided with Amun Siwa before offering their work. The hero should not express that what he considers today stories and legends was considered by the Greeks of the fourth century before The birth date is correct Yes.


Why did Alexander go to Siwa through the Paraitonites, although the natural route from the Nile Valley to Siwa was across the Wadi Natroun?
This can not be explained by the fact that before Alexander went directly to the valley he was not in the valley itself but was at the north-western extremes in order to establish his new city, and therefore it was easier for him when he took the path of the Pareitonion. The evidence suggests that the establishment of Alexandria came to pardon and without previous measure . But it can also be explained that the route of the Pertignon was the natural route to go to Siwa, but we also know that it was also the road to Corinthia and that Alexander wanted to seize all the eastern Mediterranean to leave his enemy fleet suspended in the air, Safety of the borders of Western Egypt if a strong hand grip. We do not need to go too far in demonstrating the importance of Egypt. When we realized what happened to the borders of Western Egypt from the events of the Second World, was Alexander planning to subjugate Qureina or to leave it open to his enemies? I mean, could it have been overlooked by the Fatimid people? In the face of these considerations, and at the mention of some old that when the delegation of Alexander intends to subjugate Qureina or to leave it open to his enemies? In other words, could the Ptolemies have overlooked them? In the face of these considerations, and at the mention of some of the old that when Alexander had Baraitophion was found in the ambassadors of Cyrenaica who gave him a few hundred excellent horses to the submission of his country to him. It is likely that Alexander was seeking control of Cyrenaica and that he had deliberately gone to Siwa by way of the Paraitonion, which the Greeks had to take at a size to a temple and to perform a military demonstration whose horrors were given in Korinna's declaration of subjugation to him because he could not resist him. Indeed, His obedience.
