词条 | Ptolemy of Aloros |
释义 | {{Unreferenced|date=February 2007}} Ptolemy of Aloros ({{lang-grc-gre|Πτολεμαῖος}}), was sent by King Amyntas III of Macedon as an envoy to Athens c. 375–373 BC. After Amyntas' death, he began a liaison with his widow, Eurydice. In 368 BC, he assassinated her son, Alexander II, in order to gain control of the throne. His actions were not well-regarded by the leading families of Macedon, who called in the Theban general, Pelopidas, to re-establish peace. As part of the peace settlement, Philip, Alexander II's younger brother, was taken as a hostage back to Thebes. As Alexander II's elder brother, Perdiccas III, was under-age when Alexander II was killed, Ptolemy of Aloros ruled as regent. Ptolemy ruled as a regent for Perdiccas III until Perdiccas killed him in 365 BC. It is suggested that Ptolemy was descended from Amyntas II's brother, Menelaus, son of Alexander I. {{DEFAULTSORT:Ptolemy Of Aloros}} 8 : 365 BC deaths|Regents of Macedonia (ancient kingdom)|Ancient Alorites|People from Imathia|Theban hegemony|Old Macedonian kingdom|Ambassadors of Macedonia (ancient kingdom)|Year of birth unknown |
