Daniel 8:5

And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

An he-goat came from the west, on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground. - Graeco-Macedonia.

The goat had a notable horn - Alexander. "Touched not the ground" implies the incredible swiftness of his conquests; he overran the world in less than 12 years. The he-goat corresponds to the leopard (). Caranus, the first king of Macedonia, was said to have been led by goats to Edessa, which he made the seat of his kindgom, and called AEgae - i:e., goat-city.
