Alexander III of Macedon , 20/21 July 356 BC – 10/11 June 323 BC), commonly known as Alexander the Great , was a king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon and a member of the Argead dynasty. He was born in Pella in 356 BC and succeeded his father Philip II to the throne at the age of 20. He spent most of his ruling years on an unprecedented military campaign through Western Asia and Northeastern Africa, and by the age of thirty, he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from Greece to northwestern India. He was undefeated in battle and is widely considered one of history's most successful military commanders.
Meander was the most important symbol in Ancient Greece, symbolizing infinity or the eternal flow of things. ... The meander motif appears frequently on Greek pottery, especially in the Geometric period, but is also used in monumental sculpture, for example, in frieze decoration on temple pediments.
