Panos, Alexander was extremely brutal. His deeds in India are barf inducing. No reasonable person should respect such a monster. He was a drunkard, destroyed villages etc etc. He should not have been in India in the first place. Why ? Coz Indians had nothing against him or Greeks, in general. You can't praise an imperialist like him with the flawed argument 'Alexander himself showed respect to every civilization he encountered'. How did he encounter them in the first place ? Violence. That's obviously unjustifiable ... Also, we are talking about the Greeks of the BC era. Although I should not generalise them, I am quite sure that many Ancient Greeks were racists. Take Aristotle. He was clearly a racist. He believed that non Greeks deserve to be slaves. This is quite similar to the Greek idea of 'Every person who doesn't speak Greek is a barbarian'. Guess what ? Many Brahmans in India had the same mentality. Anyone who didn't speak Sanskrit was considered a barbarian. Even the word for barbarian is almost identical. Barbaros in Greek and Barbara in Sanskrit. After all, they are sister languages. You see, Buddha debunked racism. He debunked the mentality that many Greeks and Brahmans had. People like Buddha deserve respect, instead of Alexander, Ashoka etc etc.

The statue was discovered near the gandhara region (modern day Pakistan and Afghanistan). It bears striking resemblance with the sculptures of classical rome and Greece.

Most Indo-greeks practiced a mix of Hinduism,Buddhism,Greek religion & Zorostriansim which depends on their location ,like the Bactrians followed Greek religion + Zorostrianism while those of Gandhara Followed greek religion +buddhism ,those in Punjab followed Hinduism + greek religion.Archaelogical evidence exists of A Greek Ambassador erecting a pillar in honor of Vishnu -Bhagvata in central India.

Greece and India one of the oldest friends! 🤘

I remember taking a “non-western culture” class that concentrated on art. In it, we learned about specific elements that go into deptictions of Buddha, but it was never mentioned that the statues were influenced by Greek art-styles. It is fascinating to learn that! And it kinda makes sense that the Greek influence would give rise to such specific elements and forms.

All Indian Architectural Knowledge comes from Greece and all Greek Architectural Knowledge comes from Egypt ... (Edit : Many are criticising me in the comment section. So let me just cite my Sources. For the Egyptian Origin of Greek Architecture, read 'Chapter 4' of 'Pharaohs Fellahs and Explorers' by Egyptologist 'Amelia Edwards'. For the Greek Origin of Indian Architecture, read 'The Ship in the Cave : The Greek and Nautical Origins of Buddhist Architecture'.)

Just wanna add something important here. Eurocentric scholars barely talk about the Indian influences on Greece, both before and after Alexander. Thomas McEvilley was perhaps the first to do extensive research on this subject. India and Greece influenced each other. It's not just Greece that influenced India. It is quite likely that the Pre-Socratics were influenced by Upanishadic and Sramanic Philosophies. This is likely coz the Greeks were in contact with the Indians via the Persian Empire, way before Alexander. Post Alexander, it is likely that the Greeks were influenced by Buddhist Philosophy. Pyrrho lived in India for more than 18 Months. He learnt Indian Philosophy from the Gymnosophists. Buddha had already been dead before Alexander in India. So, either the Stoics or the Epicureans or both were influenced by Indian Philosophy via Pyrrho, who took Indian Philosophy back to Greece. Eurocentric scholars always try too hard to falsify the likelihood of external influences on Greek Philosophy. The Ancient Greeks themselves often gave credit to others, like Egyptians and Indians. Modern day scholars are biased. Diogenes Laertus mentioned that Pyrrho's Equanimity came from India. So, you see, we should come out of this Eurocentric bubble and be honest. Philosophy did NOT begin in Greece and the Greeks did NOT invent it independently. That much is obvious ...

Which implies I addressed the person who told a lie. Instead since I have actually been there researched the world and India plentifully, and have on personal accounts numerous of things experienced which can conclude the matter at hand. Many Indians live in extreme poverty. Fact. hundreds of millions of Indians cannot read or write. Fact. Indians have a caste system. Fact. Many millions of Indians have to fight for even the most basic things among each other. Fact. HENCE the cultural phenomenon of racism of Indians among each other. "I am better, you are shit". "I am rich you are poor" "I am good looking, you are ugly". This plays an important role in Indian society as nothing is for granted. Most homes still live of dung piles and the level of racism among each other is immense also do to again the caste system. Jealousy among Indian men is also frequent on a cultural level on a level you don't see anywhere else. Am I thus proving this guys points? NO. I am proving MY point.

And then you're (which is what I meant with inferiority) trying to disdain European countries with inaccuracies and how a person cannot get into being a president. In the west anyone and anything can become a president, prime minister, queen, pop-star, or anything else. Even the king of the Netherlands has a news reader from Argentina as his wife and queen. But again. If that's how you roll, then that is fine.

Nitpicking here, but "Alkidemos" is a compound word, from "alki", meaning strength in combat, and "demos", meaning people, so I am surprised you have chosen to interpret "Athena Alkidemos" as Athena the Savior; I believe something like Athena the Strength of the People conveys the sentiment more accurately. At any rate, savior would be "soter" and, in fact, this exact word features in the inscription on the obverse of the same coin at 9:50, which reads ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΣΩΤΗΡΟΣ ΜΕΝΑΝΔΡΟΥ, meaning "of King Menander the Savior". Obviously you are also aware of the fact that the epithet "Soter/Savior" was claimed by many Hellenistic rulers as well (Ptolemy I, Antiochos I, Diodotos I, Demetrios I of the Seleucids etc), which is another reason why translating "alkidemos" as the same thing seems weird.
