Note

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).
