[[Bucephalus]] or [[Bucephalas]] (/bjuːˈsɛfələs/; Ancient Greek: [[Βουκεφάλας]], from [[βοῦς]] bous, "[[ox]]" and [[κεφαλή]] kephalē, "[[head]]" meaning "[[ox-head]]") (c. 355 BC – June 326 BC) was the horse of [[Alexander the Great]], and one of the most famous horses of antiquity. Ancient accounts state that Bucephalus died after the Battle of the Hydaspes in 326 BC, in what is now modern Punjab Province of Pakistan, and is buried in Jalalpur Sharif outside Jhelum, Punjab, Pakistan. Another account states that Bucephalus is buried in Phalia, a town in Pakistan's Mandi Bahauddin District in Punjab Province, which is named after him (Alexandria Bucephalous). Bucephalus was named after a branding mark depicting an ox's head on his haunch. | |||
