Coeranus of Beroea
Coeranus
of
Beroea
was a
Macedonian
general of
Alexander the Great
, since the
start
of
Asiatic
expedition
. Before the
battle of Issus
, when
Harpalus
fled
to
Greece
,
Alexander
divided
the control of
the treasury
between Coeranus and
Philoxenus
. Upon Harpalus'
return
to
favor
, Coeranus was
appointed
financial
officer
for
Phoenicia
,
Cilicia
, and
Coele-Syria
.
Arrian
3.12.4
calls
the
commander
of the
allied
cavalry
Coeranus.
Possibly
this is an
error
for
Caranus
.
