Thank you all for the replies. I just wondered if anything organized happened, especially with the injured of your own (victorious) side. For example, in the bit tedious but otherwise very good movie Alexander, there is some kind of "field hospital", were the wounded are getting medical treatment or even a hit with a hammer and an iron stick in the head for quick pain relief. Did the Makedonians really gave euthanasia? From the Romans I have heard that they buried their personal belongings into holes in the ground before a battle. Because the enemy shouldn't find and take it?
