MACEDONIA

Misappropriation . . . .  of Alexander the Great:  More recently even Alexander';s father, Philip, has also been abducted:

"When The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia renamed Skopje airport for Alexander the Great in 2007, this seemed a one-off to annoy Greece. More recently, however, the government has broadened a policy the opposition calls "antiquisation". The main road to Greece has been renamed for Alexander and the national sports stadium named after his father, and plans are afoot to erect a huge statue of Alexander in central Skopje." The Economist April 2, 2009

Even the popular but supposedly serious periodical Archaeology, a publication of the Archaeological Institute of America, has recently (January-February 2009) published an article with the name "Owning Alexander:  Modern Macedonia lays its claim to the ancient conqueror';s legacy."
