Having analysed the existing sources on the Hyphasis “mutiny” in 326 BC, the author indicates the role of false geographical knowledge in the motivation of the marching army. The cognitive theory of personality and social psychology serve to explain the development of the described events. On the basis of this study, the usefulness of historical psychology as an explanation model in history is assessed.
