Best Answer

He was not built into a statue. After his death his body was hijacked on its way back to Macedonia by his general Ptolemy who took control of Egypt, was mummified and kept at Alexandria. Augustus subsequently viewed the body in 31 BCE when he captured Alexandria from Marc Antony. The mummy later disappeared as that part of Alexandria became permanently flooded.
