Alexander (emissarius)

Alexander (Graece Ἀλέξανδρος), qui saeculo IV a.C.n. exeunte floruit, fuit Demetrii Poliorcetae in obsidione Rhodi emissarius. Ducem mercennariorum Athenagoram Milesium, Rhodiis a Ptolemaeo Aegyptio missum, corrumpere voluit et in urbem per cuniculum ad hoc faciendum intravit, sed ab Athenagora delatus est et in carcere iactus. Demetrius eum, ut a morte salveret, redimere consentivit.
