more footnotes date January 2011 Stateira died about 400 BC was the wife of king Artaxerxes II of Persia . Biography Stateira was the daughter of the Persian nobleman Hydarnes . She married Artaxerxes II, the oldest son of Darius II of Persia and his wife Parysatis . Probably Darius II wanted to establish good relations with an important noble family, from which Stateira was descended, because her brother Terituchmes married Amestris, a daughter of Darius II. But Terituchmes loved one of his half sisters more than his royal bride and tried to start a rebellion. Therefore Parysatis had all the children of Hydarnes killed and only spared the life of Stateira at the request of her husband. ref Ctesias , Persica 55 56 in an excerpt from Photius I of Constantinople . ref Artaxerxes II took over the Persian throne in 404 BC after the death of his father. Stateira seems to have been his only legal wife despite his numerous concubines. She bore a son, Artaxerxes III of Persia Artaxerxes , the heir to the throne, and probably other children. The queen mother Parysatis and Stateira tried to be the key political influence on the king so the both women became bitter rivals. Stateira was very popular with the people, allegedly because she left the curtains open when she drove in her carriage and because she talked to the ordinary people. She supported her husband in his quarrel with his brother Cyrus the Younger and criticized her sharp tongued mother in law, because Parysatis had helped her favourite son Cyrus in his attempt to win the Persian throne from his brother Artaxerxes II. Reportedly the intense hatred between the two women led Parysatis to encourage Artaxerxes II to take on concubines .... Plutarch , in his biography of Artaxerxes II, did not believe this story.

orphan date March 2010 Thyus in Greek language Greek o or lived 4th century BC was a Achaemenid Empire Persian prince of Paphlagonia in today Turkey who rebelled against Artaxerxes II of Persia Artaxerxes II . Datames , who was his first cousin, endeavoured to persuade him to return to his allegiance but this had no effect, and on one occasion, when Datames had sought a friendly conference with him, Thyus laid a plot for his assassination. Datames escaped the danger through a timely warning given him by his mother, and, on his return to his own government, declared war against Thyus, subdued him, and made him a prisoner together with his wife and children. He then arrayed him in all the insignia of his royal rank, dressed himself in hunter s garb, and, having fastened a rope round Thyus, drove him before him with a cudgel, and brought him in this guise into the presence of Artaxerxes, as if he were a wild beast that he had captured. Cornelius Nepos describes Thyus as a man of huge stature and grim aspect, with dark complexion, and long hair and beard. Claudius Aelianus Aelian notices him as notorious for his voracity, while Theopompus related that he was accustomed to have one hundred dishes placed on his table at one meal, and that, when he was imprisoned by Artaxerxes, he continued the same course of life, which drew from the king the remark that Thyus was living as if he expected a speedy death. r nepos 2 3 ath 4 10 ael 1.27 References William Smith lexicographer Smith, William Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology , http www.ancientlibrary.com smith bio 3450.html Thyus , Boston , 1867 Notes reflist refs ref name nepos 2 3 ath 4 10 ael 1.27 Nepos, Lives of Eminent Commanders , http www.tertullian.org fathers nepos.htm Datames Datames , 2 3 Athenaeus , Deipnosophistes , 4, 10 lien, Histoires diverses , http remacle.org bloodwolf historiens elien 1.htm i. 27 ref SmithDGRBM Category Achaemenid satraps Category 4th century BC people hr Tio pl ... more details
