Much of the basics of philosophy also come from Ancient Greek ideas. Some of the math equations that we are taught and use daily are Greek ideas (Pythagoras). Much of what we know about the Ancient world and other ancient civilizations comes from the writings of the Greeks. They copied manuscripts which have helped us to better understand those civilizations. Greek was key to unlocking the and understanding the Ancient Egyptian writing of hieroglyphics.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
Alexander the Great was king of Macedonia, which was an ancient Greek kingdom. Eventually, Macedonia would become the center of Hellenistic culture. Alexander's empire had become one of the largest of the ancient world by the time he turned 30. His rule spread Greek civilization all over the continent, and to areas as remote as India and Northern Africa. This resulted in cultural diffusion but also in syncretism. It also marked the beginning of Hellenistic civilization.
