That looks like Hambaricho Mountain to me.

'Furthermore, the officers had their eyes on the empire and positions of authority, the soldiers on Alexander's war chest and its great amount gold, an unexpected prize. The former dreamed on the accession to the throne, the latter of a legacy of wealth and riches; for there were 50,000 talents in the treasury and tribute generated 30,000 a year. But Alexander's friends were justified having their eyes set on the throne since their qualities and the respect they enjoyed were such that one might have taken each one of them for a king, all of them possessing handsome features,a fine physique and great powers of body and mind alike-so much so that a stranger would have supposed that they had been selected not from one people only but from all the world. For never before that time did Macedonia, or indeed any other nation, produce so rich a collection of brillant men, men who had been picked out with such care, first by Philip and then by Alexander, that they seemed chosen less as comrades in arms than as successors to the throne. Little wonder then that the world was conquered by officers of this caliber, when the Macedonian army was under the direction of so many men who were kings rather than generals. Such men would never have met their match had they not clashed amongst themselves, and the province of Macedonia would have produced many Alexanders if Fortune had not armed them to destroy each other by making them equals in merit.' From Justin's Epitome of the Philippic History of Pompeius Trogus. Book 13:1 (8-15).
