Peter and Zainab slowly stood up, desperately trying to catch their breath. He took out the small flashlight that he had hooked on his utility belt and shone it around where he saw torches on the wall everywhere. Peter took out his lighter, took down a torch, and tried to light it. After a few attempts, the torch ignited into a large flame. The entire room lit up. Zainab scurried to get a torch for herself as Peter approached the wall. It was covered with hieroglyphics. The cavern's vastness and the mystery it held fascinated them, igniting their curiosity to uncover more. "We can't forget why we are here. We must find that bastard and kill him and everyone with him." Zainab nodded in agreement.

War, the most profitable economic activity in the ancient world, transferred wealth violently from the vanquished to the victor. Invasions, massacres, confiscations, deportations, the sacking of cities, and the selling of survivors into slavery all redistributed property with epic consequences for kings and commoners alike. The most notable example occurred in the late fourth century BC, when Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire. For all of its savagery, this invasion has generally been heralded as a positive economic event for all concerned. Even those harshly critical of the king today tend to praise his plundering of Persia as a means of liberating the moribund resources of the East. To test that popular interpretation, this book investigates the kinds and quantities of treasure seized by the Macedonian king, from gold and silver to land and slaves. It reveals what became of the king's wealth, and what Alexander's redistribution of these vast resources can tell us about his much-disputed policies and personality.
