Note

Antiochus II, called Theos ("the divine") (circa 287-246 bc), king of
Syria (261-246 bc), son and successor of Antiochus I. The citizens of
Miletus, in Asia Minor, called him Theos after he fReed them from the
tyrant Timarchus (flourished 3d century bc) in 258 bc. Having fought a
Long and costly war (260-255 bc) against Ptolemy II, king of Egypt,
Antiochus won back most of the territories his father had lost, only to be
defeated in 250 bc by his own satrap, or provincial governor, Diodotus I
(reigned about 256-235 bc), who seized the Syrian province of Bactria.
Subsequently, Antiochus also lost the province of Parthia to the Parthian
dynasty of the Arsacids.
