Originally Alexander's casket was stolen by Ptolemy and taken to Memphis, but shortly afterwards Ptolemy II took Alexander to Alexanderia where it stayed for quite some time. After AD 200, Alexander's tomb was closed to the public. Unfortunately the details as to Alexander's final resting place have long since been lost.
