jul 23, 328 BC - Alexander kills Black Cleitus for an insult at Samarkand.
Description:
On this day Cleitus knew that he would no longer be the king and would be a forgotten man. Furious at this he spoke his mind saying that Alexander was not the legitimate king of the Macedonians and that all of his achievements were due to his father. This leads to Alexander killing Cletus.
