When Caesar Augustus went to Alexandria and saw the body of Alexander the Great, how well preserved was his body?

 There is no historical evidence to suggest that Caesar Augustus ever went to Alexandria and saw the body of Alexander the Great. In fact, there is no reliable historical account of the two figures ever meeting or Augustus viewing Alexander's body.

Alexander the Great died in 323 BCE, and his body was initially interred in a gold sarcophagus in Alexandria. The exact location of Alexander's tomb became uncertain over time, and there are various accounts of its fate. Some sources claim that Ptolemy II Philadelphus, a successor of Alexander in Egypt, moved the tomb to a more grandiose mausoleum. Others suggest that it was later lost or destroyed.

The story of Caesar Augustus viewing Alexander's body may be a misunderstanding or a fabrication. If such an event did occur, there is no reliable historical record of it, and the condition of Alexander's body would remain unknown. Additionally, the preservation of a body for several centuries would be highly unlikely, given the limited knowledge and techniques available at the time.
