Roxanna
Roxana (Ancient Greek: Ῥωξάνη; Old Iranian: *Raṷxšnā- "shining, radiant, brilliant"; sometimes Roxanne, Roxanna, Rukhsana, Roxandra and Roxane) was a Sogdian or a Bactrian princess whom the Macedonian king, Alexander the Great, married, after defeating Darius, the Achaemenian king, and invading Persia. The date of her birth is unknown, but she was probably in her late teens or early twenties at the time of her wedding to Alexander the Great. She died in c. 310 BC.
