Gordian knot
Some letters between him and Aristotle
A lot of the stuff with his mother
All the stuff about Egypt, son of Ra was just a traditional title for the Pharaoh of which he tried to take
Him being poisoned or drinking to death, just some diadoch war slander

He was most likely bisexual which wasn't a big deal at the time
>>1782929
he also had a eunuch buttslave
>>1782978
don't forget the meeting with diogenes

So did most of the other Greek patrician pederasts

There's evidence that he was Hephaestion's sub. Phillip II was worried about it, which is why he responded by surrounding Alexander with beautiful women constantly when he was a young man.

The entire existence of Aristotle is fanfiction of Alexander that got taken up by Roman (and later Islamic) writers after his death.

Homosexuality as a strictly male on male relationship wasn't considered a sexual identity until recently.
There were only few cases in ancient history of exclusively homosexual men but pederasty was common and expected from Greece to Japan.
