Note:
Ptolemy VI PHILOMETOR (Greek: Loving His Mother) (fl. c. 180-145 BC),Macedonian king of Egypt under whom an attempted invasion of Coele Syria resulted in the occupation of Egypt by the Seleucids. After Roman intervention and several ventures of joint rule with his brother, however, Ptolemy was able to reunite his realm.
The son of Ptolemy V Epiphanes and Cleopatra I, Ptolemy VI ruled as co-regent with his mother, who, although a daughter of a Seleucid king,did not take sides in Syria and remained friendly with Rome. Mother and son governed effectively until her death in 176, when Ptolemy fell under the influence of two ambitious courtiers. Around 173 Ptolemy wasmarried to his sister, Cleopatra II. Under his advisers' guidance, preparations were made to invade Coele Syria. In 170 Ptolemy VIII Euergetes, his brother, was associated on the throne with Ptolemy VI and Cleopatra II, and Coele Syria was invaded, but the Seleucid ruler Antiochus IV decisively defeated the Egyptians and seized Pelusium, the Egyptian frontier city. Antiochus invaded Egypt in 170 and again in 168, but withdrew under pressure from the Ptolemies' ally, Rome. About October 164 Philometor was expelled from Alexandria by his brother and fledto Rome for support. The Romans thereupon partitioned the Ptolemaic realm, ordering Euergetes into Cyrenaica and giving Philometor Cyprus and Egypt.
Euergetes, not content with Cyrenaica alone, journeyed to Rome twice to ask for Cyprus also. The Senate finally decided to grant the brother's request; Philometor, however, delayed the Romans by clever diplomacy and in 154 defeated his brother, who attempted to seize Cyprus by force. Nevertheless Philometor restored his brother to Cyrenaica, married a daughter to him, and granted him a grain subsidy. In Rome, meanwhile, the Roman statesman Cato the Elder, deploring the continuous intrigues, praised Ptolemy VI as a good and beneficent ruler. At last Philometor's kingdom became relatively secure.
In 155, however, the Seleucid ruler of Syria had incurred Ptolemy's enmity by conspiring to seize Cyprus. When a pretender, Alexander Balas, appeared, Philometor hastened to aid him in 153, and later even gave him a daughter in marriage. About 148, however, the Egyptian king found himself in Syria again when another pretender appeared. When Alexander Balas failed in his attempt to have Philometor assassinated, theEgyptian ruler bestowed his daughter, Balas' wife, on the new pretender. Although Ptolemy supported him, the people of Antioch and the Syrian army asked the Egyptian monarch himself to become their ruler. Ptolemy declined, but he was soon drawn into a battle in which Alexander Balas was defeated and slain. During the battle Ptolemy fell from his horse and fractured his skull, dying a few days later.

Ptolemy VI Philometor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ptolemy VI Philometor (Greek: ?t??eµa??? F???µ?t??, c. 191-145 BC) was a king of Egypt from the Ptolemaic period. He reigned from 180 to 145 BC.

Ptolemy succeeded in 180 at the age of about 12 and ruled jointly with his mother, Cleopatra I, until her death in 176 BC. The following year he married his sister, Cleopatra II.

In 170 BC, Antiochus IV began the sixth Syrian War and invaded Egypt twice. He was crowned as its king in 168, but abandoned his claim on the orders of the Roman Senate. From 169-164 Egypt was ruled by a triumvirate consisting of Ptolemy, his sister-queen and his younger brother known as Ptolemy VIII Physcon, but in 164 he was driven out by his brother and went to Rome to seek support, which he received from Cato. He was restored the following year by the intervention of the Alexandrians and ruled uneasily, cruelly suppressing frequent rebellions. In 152 BC he briefly ruled jointly with one of his sons, known as Ptolemy Eupator, but it is thought that Ptolemy Eupator died that same year.

He is reputed to have taken as eromenos a boy named Galestes, whom he loved not only for his good looks but also for his wisdom. (Aelian, Varia Historia, I.30) Ptolemy VI Philometer was killed in Syria, fighting against Alexander Balas.

Ptolemy Philometor reigned for a short time with his son, Ptolemy Eupator. Eupator is only attested on monumental inscriptions, and when he was first discovered, there was a theory that he was an elder brother of Philometor, and reigned before him. As a result, some nineteenth century texts count Ptolemy Philometor as Ptolemy VII, and increase the numbers of all the later Ptolemies until "Ptolemy XVI Caesarion". The epithets, which have come down from antiquity, are unchanged.

--------------------

Ptolemy VI (186?-145 bc), called Ptolemy Philometor ("loving his mother"),
king of Egypt (181-145 bc), the son of Ptolemy V and Cleopatra I. During
his reign, Egypt was invaded by the Seleucid king Antiochus IV, and
Ptolemy was made a prisoner. The throne was then given by the Alexandrians
to his brother, Ptolemy VII. After Antiochus withdrew, the brothers ruled
as joint kings. Conflicts between them arose, and through Roman
arbitration, Cyrenaica was given to Ptolemy VII to rule. After the death
of the Seleucid king Demetrius I in 150 bc, Ptolemy VI was offered the
Seleucid crown by the people of Antioch, but he declined in favor of the
legitimate heir, Demetrius II. In 145 bc Ptolemy VI died of wounds
received in a battle, which resulted in the final defeat of Demetrius II's
rival, Alexander Balas (died 145 bc).
