"Roxana (Ancient Greek: Ῥωξάνη; Old Iranian *Raṷxšnā- “shining, radiant, brilliant”); sometimes Roxanne, Roxanna, Rukhsana, Roxandra and Roxane) was a Sogdian or a Bactrian princess of Bactria whom the Macedonian king, Alexander the Great, married, after defeating Darius III, the Achaemenian king, and invading Persia. She was born in c. 340 BC, though the precise date remains uncertain, and died in c. 310 BC." - (en.wikipedia.org 24.11.2020)
