Told you there'd be random facts: Alexander the Great founded a city in honour of his horse Bucephalus when it died of old age after he had ridden it throughout his campaigns.
don't know the modern name The river is now the river Jhelum, and it is thought that the city of Bucephala is either the modern-day city of Jhelum, or a mound on the opposite side of the river to it. (Quite a bit of debate going on).
Will have to find some method of increasing you appreciation of Colin Farrell ready for the film *g*

The city was Bucephalia on the bank of the river Hydaspes (don't know the modern name).
