So where's the evidence that Alexander IV was recognized as Pharaoh? Septentrionalis PMAnderson 01:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Alexander III was recognized as pharaoh by the Egyptians. So Philip III, his successor, would have retained all of his positions. Alexander IV, Philip III's successor, would have done the same. It was only after his death that Ptolemy declared himself pharaoh. Or at least that's how I understand things to be. Correct me if I am wrong. Crispus 20:18, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
