Persönliche Daten Antiochus II "Theos" Seleukid 

• (Geschiedenis) .Quelle 1

  Antiochus II Theos (286 — 246 v.Chr.) (soms ook Antiochos II Theos gespeld) was koning van het Rijk der Seleuciden (Syrië) (2 juni 261 - begin juli 246 v.Chr.). Zijn vader was koning Antiochus I Soter en zijn moeder de Macedonische prinses Stratonice II.
  
  Toen hij aan de macht kwam was het rijk in oorlog met de Ptolemaeën onder koning Ptolemaeus II van Egypte. In 258 v.Chr. wist hij Timarchus af te zetten, een pro-Ptolemaeïsche tiran van Milete. Het volk van Milete kende hem daarom de titel "God" (Theos) toe.
  
  In ongeveer 250 v.Chr. eindigde de oorlog en Antiochus bezegelde dit door te trouwen met Berenice, dochter van Ptolemaeus II Philadephus na scheiding van zijn eerste vrouw Laodice. Ofschoon Berenice Syra hem wel een kind schonk, ging het huwelijk mis en in 246 v.Chr. haalde Laodice haar man weer terug bij haar. Datzelfde jaar stierf de koning. Geruchten gingen dat hij door Laodice vergiftigd was zodat haar oudste zoon Seleucus II Callinicus aan de macht kon komen.

  Antiochus II Theos (Greek: ??t????? ?' Te??, 286 BC – 246 BC) was a king of the Hellenistic Seleucid Kingdom who reigned in 261 BC – 246 BC). He succeeded his father Antiochus I Soter in the winter of 262–61 BC. He was the younger son of Antiochus I and princess Stratonice, the daughter of Demetrius Poliorcetes.
  
  He inherited a state of war with Egypt, the "Second Syrian War", which was fought along the coasts of Asia Minor, and the constant intrigues of petty despots and restless city-states in Asia Minor. Antiochus also made some attempt to get a footing in Thrace. During the war he was given the title Theos (Greek: Te??, "God"), being such to the Milesians in slaying the tyrant Timarchus.[1]
  
  During the time Antiochus was occupied with the war against Egypt, Andragoras, his satrap in Parthia, proclaimed independence. According to Justin's epitome of Pompeius Trogus, in Bactria, his satrap Diodotus also revolted in 255 BC, and founded the Greco-Bactrian kingdom, which further expanded in India in 180 BC to form the Greco-Indian kingdom (180 BC – 1 BC). Then about 238 BC, Arsaces led a revolt of the Parthians against Andragoras, leading to the foundation of the Parthian Empire. These events would have cut off communications with India. Phylarchus[2] relays current scandals regarding his drunken banquets and liaisons with unsuitable young men.
  
  About this time, Antiochus made peace with Ptolemy II of Egypt, ending the Second Syrian War. Antiochus repudiated his wife Laodice I and exiled her to Ephesus. To seal the treaty, he married Ptolemy's daughter Berenice and received an enormous dowry.
  
  During her stay in Ephesus, Laodice I continued numerous intrigues to become queen again. By 246 BC Antiochus had left Berenice and their infant son Antiochus, in Antioch to live again with Laodice I in Asia Minor. Laodice I took the occasion to poison Antiochus while her partisans at Antioch murdered Berenice and their infant son. Antiochus was buried in the Belevi Mausoleum.[3]
  
  Laodice I then proclaimed Seleucus II as King. With his cousin-wife Laodice I, Antiochus had two sons: Seleucus II Callinicus, Antiochus Hierax and three daughters: Apama, Stratonice of Cappadocia and Laodice.[4]
  Relations with India
  
  Antiochus is mentioned[5] in the Edicts of Ashoka, as one of the recipients of the Indian Emperor Ashoka's Buddhist proselytizing, although no Western historical record of this event remains:
  
  "And even this conquest [preaching Buddhism] has been won by the Beloved of the Gods here and in all the borderlands, as far as six hundred yojanas (5,400-9,600 km) away, where Antiochos, king of the Yavanas [Greeks/Macedonians] rules, and beyond this Antiochus four kings named Ptolemy, Antigonos, Magas and Alexander rule,".[6]
  
  Ashoka also claims that he encouraged the development of herbal medicine, for men and animals, in the territories of the Hellenistic kings:
  
  "Everywhere within Beloved-of-the-Gods, King Piyadasi's [Ashoka's] domain, and among the people beyond the borders, the Cholas, the Pandyas, the Satiyaputras, the Keralaputras, as far as Tamraparni and where the Greek king Antiochos rules, and among the kings who are neighbors of Antiochos, everywhere has Beloved-of-the-Gods, King Piyadasi, made provision for two types of medical treatment: medical treatment for humans and medical treatment for animals. Wherever medical herbs suitable for humans or animals are not available, I have had them imported and grown. Wherever medical roots or fruits are not available I have had them imported and grown. Along roads I have had wells dug and trees planted for the benefit of humans and animals."
