Encyclopedia > Antiochus XIII Asiaticus

Antiochus XIII Asiaticus, a ruler of the Greek Seleucid kingdom, was son of king Antiochus X Eusebes and Ptolemaic princess Cleopatra Selene, who acted as regent for the boy after his father's death sometime between 92 and 85 BC. In 83 BC, after Tigranes had conquered Syria, she travelled to Rome to have her sons recognized as kings of Egypt, but to no avail. Selene was eventually captured and killed by Tigranes, but after the latter's defeat by Pompey Antiochus XIII was made client king of Syria (69 BC). After a few years Pompey had him deposed and killed by an Arab chieftain in 64 BC.
