Alexander IV of Macedon

Rare card · No. 54247

Alexander IV (Greek: Ἀλέξανδρος; Late summer 323 BC – 311/304 BC), sometimes called Aegus, was the younger son of Alexander the Great (Alexander III of Macedon) by his wife Roxana of Bactria, born after his father's death. As his father's only surviving legitimate child, Alexander IV inherited the throne of the Macedonian Empire after him; however, he was murdered in his teens, never wielding the actual power.
