Looking for some sources
Hello, everybody!
I'm doing some reading on Alexander and India in particular. I've been looking for ages now and I just can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I need more information on the hardships the common soldiers faced during the time in India. It's really hard to find anything useful on this that isn't tinged with mystery and exaggeration rather than.... you know, a more objective account.
Also, does anyone know of any exhaustive accounts of how boys lived at the Temple of Mieza? I've been looking through my books, but found nothing but a short account relating to Aristotle more than Macedonian youth.
I'd be immensely grateful if anyone could direct me to the best sources on these subjects.
Thank you in advance!
