The Arabic History Of Dulcarnain And The Ethiopian History Of Alexander BY Andrew Runni Anderson
THE ARABIC HISTORY OF DULCARNAIN AND THE ETHIOPIAN HISTORY OF ALEXANDER
IN THE history and tradition of the Alexander Legend Spain occupies a unique position; for here converged and were juxtaposed two lines of development long distinct. Indeed, they never really united or mixed.
From the north came to the line to be characterized as occidental, and derived for the most part from the Nativlitas et Victoria Alexandri Magni Regis (called in its later and interpolated redactions Historia de Prelims), a Latin version made by the Archipresbyter Leo of Naples just after the middle of the tenth century from a Greek original secured at Constantinople, the latter itself derived from a lost Greek original designated by the sign &.
From the south came a line to be characterized as oriental, in Arabic, which in passing into Arabic had become moslemized.
There were, it is true, many versions in Arabic but the most significant of them, generally dated as belonging to the ninth century, has been regarded as lost, and yet as having to a great extent served as the chief source of the Ethiopian version, dating from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century.
