What happened to Alexander's body? Was his tomb destroyed? Hijacked? Or was it something more sinister?

Mystery Files investigates what happened to the body and tomb. Alexander the Great was one of the most famous military leaders in history. After his death, his body and tomb would be sources of great veneration. History, however, reveals few references to Alexander's body and tomb. Mystery Files speculates that the body was taken from its tomb in Alexandria to Venice where it is now passed off as the body of St. Mark the Evangelist.
