At the time of the death of Calanus, Alexander, however, did not have any plan to go to Babylon. No one understood the meaning of his words We shall meet in Babylon. It was only after Alexander fell sick and died in Babylon, that the Greeks came to realize what Calanus intended to convey.
Alexander began his war against the Persians in 334 BC. At the time the Macedonian leader was twenty-two years old. At his death eleven years later, Alexander ruled the largest empire of the ancient world. His victory at the battle of Gaugamela on the Persian plains was a decisive conquest that insured the defeat of his Persian rival King Darius III.
