His successor in Cilicia was Arsames, who was ultimately expelled by Alexander the Great. At the Battle of Gaugamela, Mazaeus commanded the right flank with the Syrian, Median, Mesopotamian, Parthian, Sacian, Tapurian, Hyrcanian, Sacesinian, Cappadocian, and Armenian cavalry. Hellenistic Satrap of BabylonAs a reward for his recognition of Alexander as the legitimate successor of Darius, Mazaeus was rewarded by being able to retain the satrapy of Babylon, as a Hellenistic satrap.[1] Alexander left a Macedonian, Apollodorus of Amphipolis, as the military commander of the garrison of Babylon, and another as tax-collector.[1] Mazaeus continued minting coins under his name, and later without his name. Personal lifeThe daughter of the Persian king Darius III, Stateira II, was originally betrothed to him, but he died before they could be married. She was eventually married to Alexander. It is thought that the Alexander Sarcophagus was actually dedicated to him.[2] Mazaeus was replaced as satrap of Babylon by Stamenes.[3] CoinageMazaeus has an abundant coinage, which he minted in Tarsos, Sidon and Babylon.
