The map also highlights key geographical features such as the Black Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Aral Sea, and the mighty River Nile. The territories of Scythia, Arabia, and the Persian Gulf are also clearly marked. Alexander the Great is depicted as the 'Basileus' or 'King' of Macedonia and 'Hegemon' of the Hellenic League.

This map is a testament to the historical significance of Alexander the Great and the vast territory he conquered during his reign.
