Abstract

The Hellenistic Age stretched from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BCE to the Roman conquest of Ptolemaic Egypt in 30 BCE. The salient features of the age were the creation of a new, syncretic culture in the Greek Middle East and the inability of the Macedonians to maintain a unified empire after Alexander’s death in 323 BCE, eventually losing their independence to the Romans.
