Talk:Alexandria in the Caucasus

explanation
Why is it called "Alexandria of the Caucasus" when it is, in fact, about 1000 miles from the Caucasus? The article could use some explanation of this. &mdash;Charles P._ (Mirv) 01:25, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I fail to see why Bagram Air Base, a vital place of arms during the Soviet war in Afganistan, should be mentioned in this particular article. --Ghirla-трёп- 07:42, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Replaced the capital of Gandhara
Please provide an English-language reference for the following assertion: --Ghirla-трёп- 21:03, 1 September 2007 (UTC)


 * The city was built on top of Kapiša-kaniš (pronounced "Kapish-Kanish"), capital of the Persian satrapy of Gandara. It is not known whether Gandara was still a part of the Achaemenid Empire when Alexander took it.

Article title
The article's title should probably be changed from "Alexandria on the Caucasus" to "Alexandria of [or in] the Caucasus". (The article itself uses "of" several times, and the maps use "in".)Alexjtb (talk) 13:52, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
