Cleopatra III of Egypt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cleopatra III (Greek: ??e?p?t?a, 161–101 BC) was queen of Egypt 142–101 BC.

She was born in 161 BC to Ptolemy VI and Cleopatra II of Egypt. Ptolemy VII Neos Philopater was her brother. After the death of her father, her brother became the King of Egypt, and her mother was regent. In an attempt to gain control of Cleopatra II, Ptolemy VIII Euergetes II "Physcon" married her. Physcon later had Philopater killed, thus taking the throne for himself.

He then discarded Cleopatra II and married Cleopatra III in 142 BC, making her Queen and joint ruler. His reign after that was peaceful, but he was very despotic. She bore Physcon these children: Ptolemy IX Philometor Soter II Lathyros, Ptolemy X Alexander I, Cleopatra IV, Cleopatra V Tryphaena, and Cleopatra Selene.

When he died, he left the throne to Cleopatra and whichever son she wished. If it were up to her, she would have chosen her younger son Alexander, but the Alexandrians forced her to bring Lathyros from Cyprus, of which he was governor, to co-rule, becoming Ptolemy IX. The younger son Alexander was then sent to Cyprus to fill Lathyros's former position.

Eventually, by accusing Lathyros of murdering her, she successfully deposed him and brought Alexander back to Egypt, becoming Ptolemy X. However, she eventually tired of Alexander and brought back Lathyros. Again, she grew tired of Lathyros as well, and Alexander was brought back. Tiring of his mother's intrigue, Alexander had her assassinated in 101 BC.

Cleopatra Thea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Cleopatra Thea (c. 164 BC - 121 BC) surnamed Euergetis (i.e., "Benefactress") was a daughter of Ptolemy VI of Egypt and Cleopatra II of Egypt. She ruled Seleucid Syria from 125 BC to 121 BC.

She married Alexander Balas in about 150 BC. This union produced Antiochus VI Dionysus.

Her second marriage was to Demetrius II Nicator in about 148 BC. Their children were Seleucus V Philometor, Antiochus VIII Grypus, and possibly a daughter (Laodice?). Demetrius was captured fighting against the Parthians and was consequently off the scene for a while.

Her third husband, married during Demetrius' captivity, was his brother Antiochus VII Sidetes. They certainly had Antiochus IX Cyzicenus, but the names of any other children are uncertain. In about 129 BC, Antiochus was killed fighting the Parthians. Demetrius had been released and returned home to reclaim his throne and queen. Cleopatra had taken the precaution of sending Antiochus IX (her son by Antiochus VII) to Cyzicus in Asia Minor (hence his surname).

Demetrius unsuccessfully attempted to invade Egypt. In retaliation, the ruler of Egypt put forward Alexander Zabinas, allegedly a son of Alexander Balas as king of Syria, provoking civil war. After a defeat by Zabinas' forces at Damascus, Demetrius retreated to Ptolemais Hermiou only to find the city gates closed against him by Cleopatra. He boarded a ship to flee, but was killed on Cleopatra's orders.

From 125 BC to 121 BC, Cleopatra ruled Syria, killing Demetrius' eldest son Seleucus when he attempted to claim the throne. To legitimize her reign, she shared the throne with her son Antiochus VIII Grypus.

Antiochus became less controllable as he grew up and in 121 BC, she decided to eliminate him. As he returned from a hunt one day, she offered him a cup of wine. Since this was not common behavior for her, Antiochus was suspicious and forced her to drink the wine, with the predictable outcome.
