Wrong date. I think he was referring to the Theban Sacred Band which were composed of 300 homosexuals, which makes the date 338 B.C. not 60 B.C.

Are "half graduations" and "half proms" only a thing here or....? Cause I don't think I've ever heard about it from anyone apart from Macedonians....

It's like prom/grad but for finishing 9th grade instead of highschool. Highschool is grad/prom, 9th grade is half grad/prom.

You said Macedonians were "Celtic", a misnomer since Indo-European Pontic Steppe ancestry was shared between the two since the Bronze Age, but they were totally separate ethnic groups. Northern Greeks in general, not just Macedonians, lived close to fair looking Thracians:

LOL. Not modern Slavs like FYROM "North Macedonia", they were literally of the kingdom of Macedon in northern Greece, centered at the capital cities of Pella and Aigai. Cleopatra spoke Koine Greek as a first language and Macedonians worshiped Greek gods and had Greek names.

The Agrianians Expert assault infantry, their greatest asset was their specialised skill at fighting in both mountaineous and uneven terrain - something Alexander's heavy Macedonians were ill-equipped for.
