During his ruling of Greece and his conquests, Alexander III believed in and followed Ammit's vision of justice and was eventually chosen as her Avatar. He was used by Ammit to observe human conflict.

Post-mortem, Alexander III's body was sealed in a sarcophagus and encased in a tomb. His mummified corpse was used as a vessel to hide the ushabti that imprisoned Ammit after the Ennead turned her to stone. His sarcophagus was later discovered by Steven Grant, who begrudgingly desecrated his corpse by prying the ushabti from his viscus to prevent the Disciples of Ammit from acquiring it.[2]
