To: Does so
Once visited the museum which covers the burial tomb of Phillip II of Macedonia, Alexander's father, at Vergina in northern Greece. When dug up his armor was almost entirely intact. Including the greaves, one longer than the other (he reputedly had one leg longer and walked with a limp). There are so many amazing discoveries yet to be made that will largely confirm what a lot of PhD dissertations have called "myth".

I read somewhere that Phillip had only one good everything.

One eye, one good leg, one good arm etc. All due to combat.
