How can this document be used to argue that Alexander's legacy extended from Italy to India? Explain, using two specific examples.

Looking at the above document, we can tell that Alexander's legacy extended to India because the religion that was most directly influenced by Greek art and ritual is Buddhism in India. Alexander was responsible for conquering the Persian empire all the way to India so if the Greeks are influencing anything in India - as they are Buddhism - this is a legacy of Alexander.

We can also see from the above that his influence extended to Italy as well because the Roman emperor, Marcus Macrinus had images of Alexander the Great sewn into his clothing. Italy was the seat of power for the Roman empire so for Alexander to have been depicted by a Roman emperor, his legacy must have extended to Italy.

most of the knowledge we have of the conflict comes from roman-jewish scholar titus flavius josephus, who first fought in the revolt against the romans, but was then kept by future emperor vespasian as a slave and interpreter.
