After Alexander the Great died, a corpsof centurions was formed to keep guard at his tomb, around theclock. It was agreed that each centurion would keep a four-hourshift. But this was before the advent of the time-piece, and,since sundials did not work at night, the night-shift centurionshad a hard time knowing when the four hours were up. So the headof the centurion corps visited an alchemist, who concocted achemical formula which turned white cloth brown after four hours.The centurions were each instructed to wear a white rag soaked inthe chemical around their wrist, and when the white rag turnedbrown they would know that their shift was completed. This is theorigination of the term "Alexander's Rag Time-Band."
