#443 – Gregory Aldrete: The Roman Empire – Rise and Fall of Ancient Rome
Gregory Aldrete
Alexander the Great arms his armies with the sarissa, which is this 15-foot, almost a pike, this extra long spear. And so when the spear is that long, you don't even hardly need the shields anymore. So it's just this incredibly powerful thing in frontal attack. And that's what he uses to make himself ruler of the known world.
