About this person

Roxana married Alexander the Great following his defeat of Darius and the conquest of the Achaemenid Empire. Her name derived from Old Iranian meaning "shining, radiant, brilliant". She died around 310 BC, roughly a decade after Alexander himself, her life bound to the violent churn of succession that followed his empire's collapse.
