Alexander's death has been reinterpreted many times over the centuries. The only thing that is certain is that he died of a high fever. On the afternoon of June 11, 323 BC, Alexander died in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon. He was just one month short of attaining 33 years of age. Various theories have been proposed for the cause of his death which include poisoning by the sons of Antipater or others, sickness that followed a drinking party, or a relapse of the malaria he had contracted in 336 BC. Later theories suggest a congenital spinal deformity or neurological disorder but it has never been proved http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_the_Great#Cause Mar 06 09, 7:12 AM
