Today we had to research Alexander the Great and his relationship with Bucephalus, here is what I found:
In 346 BCE, Philoneicus and Thessaly presented Bucephalus to Alexander's father. King Phillip didn't want Bucephalus because he was considered wild and unmanageable. Before he had sent him away, Alexander said he would pay for the horse if he wasn't able to tame him. Soon, Alexander noticed that his horse was afraid of his own shadow. Because of all the time Alexander was spending training the horse, they became very close. After the defeat of Darius, Bucephalus was kidnapped. He died in 326 BCE, soon after he was returned, although his death is unknown. Alexander then named a city after his horse; Bucephala.
