Hi Jona,Maybe I'm being thick, but I don't see that that amounts to the same thing. Noting the point when the Greeks *learned* that Bessus had proclaimed him king doesn't point to ignorance about the fact that he assumed the throne on Darius' death. From a propagandist point of view, they would have an interest in 'forgetting to mention it', perhaps.All the bestMarcus
