Macedonian king Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.) was born to parents King Philip II and Queen Olympia. Tutored by Aristotle, the prince took charge of the Companion Cavalry at age 18 and aided Philip in defeating the Athenian and Theban armies at Chaeronea. After the death of his father, Alexander garnered the support of the Macedonian Army and eliminated his enemies to become king and leader of the Corinthian League. Alexander went on to conquer Persia and Egypt, his kingdom ranging from the Mediterranean to the border of India. Just 32 when he died from malaria, he is regarded as one of history’s brilliant military leaders and most powerful rulers.

Wittaler [7]
Mecca was an important city for Arabs on the Arabian Peninsula before Islam because it was a pilgrimage site. During the 4th century, pilgrims flocked to the city of Mecca to perform an act of ritual on a small square building called Ka'aba (a cube in Arabic). Pilgrims would walk seven times around the Ka'aba to worship idols that were scattered inside the cube. Inside the cube there is also a sacred and ancient black stone that pilgrims also pay tribute to when they do their rituals in the Ka'aba. 

Aside from this fact, Mecca served also as a trading post for caravans passing through the route from the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean.
