  Laodice VI (flourished 2nd century BC, died 115 BC-113 BC) was a Greek Seleucid Princess and through marriage was a Queen of the Kingdom of Pontus.
  
  Laodice was the daughter born from the full blooded sibling union of the Seleucid Monarchs Antiochus IV Epiphanes and Laodice IV.[1] Her grandparents were the Seleucid Monarchs Antiochus III the Great and Laodice III. Through her mother’s previous marriages, she had various maternal half-brothers and sisters and two full blooded brothers who served as Seleucid Kings Antiochus V Eupator and Alexander Balas. In 152 BC, Laodice became one of the supporters for her brother Alexander Balas, who revolted and overthrew the Seleucid King Demetrius I Soter, who was their maternal half-brother/cousin.
  
  After 152 BC, Laodice married King Mithridates V of Pontus,[2] who reigned from 150 BC–120 BC. Little is known regarding her relationship with her husband or her reign as Pontian Queen. During their marriage, Laodice bore Mithridates V seven children: Laodice of Cappadocia, Mithridates VI of Pontus, Mithridates Chrestus, Laodice, Nysa (sometimes spelt as Nyssa), Roxana and Statira. Nysa, Roxana and Statira were put to death after the fall of the Kingdom of Pontus in 63 BC.
  
  Mithridates V was assassinated in about 120 BC in Sinope poisoned by unknown persons at a lavish banquet which he held.[3] In the will of Mithridates V, he left the Kingdom to the joint rule of Laodice, Mithridates VI and Mithridates Chrestus. Both of her sons were underage to rule and Laodice retained all power as regent.[4]
  
  Laodice in her regency favored her second son over her first son. During her regency 120 BC-116 BC (even perhaps up to 113 BC), Mithridates VI escaped from the plotting of his mother and had gone into hiding. She enjoyed luxuries that made her a compliant client of Rome. She accepted bribes from the Roman Republic and her extravagance pushed Pontus into debt.[5]
  
  Mithridates VI between 116 BC-113 BC returned to Pontus from hiding and was hailed King. He was able to remove his mother and his brother from the Pontian throne, thus Mithridates VI became the sole ruler of Pontus. Mithridates VI show clemency towards his mother and brother, by imprisoning them both.[6] Laodice VI died in prison of natural causes, however his brother Mithridates Chrestus could have died in prison from natural causes or was tried for treason and was executed on the orders of his brother.[7] When they died, Mithridates VI gave his mother and brother, a royal funeral
