    1 True, Alexander the Great did die at the age of 32. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_the_Great

    2 Not Sure, Theories say that Alexander the Great may have gotten sick after a mass drinking session and died but the most popular answer I found was that he died of a mysterious illness in his sleep. http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060910021950AAqwx7X

    3 False, The Ancient Greece civilistaion sprang form the Minoans and the Mycenaens. I found this in the booklet that we have.

    4 True, Ancient Greeks did mark their graves with pottery. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pottery_of_ancient_Greece
