Note 200 — Chapter XCII · ASIATIC CAMPAIGNS OF ALEXANDER.
Reading edition
Arrian, in describing another battle, considers that the proportion of twelve to one, between wounded and killed, is above what could have been expected (v. 24, 8). Rüstow and Köchly (p. 273) state that in modern battles, the ordinary proportion of wounded to killed is from 8:1 to 10:1.
