Antiochis of Commagene
Antiochis of Commagene (Template:Langx) — was a Princess from the Kingdom of Commagene, who lived in the 1st century BC.[1][2] She was of Greek and Iranian descent.
Life
Antiochis was the second daughter of King Antiochus I Theos of Commagene and Queen Isias Philostorgos.[3] Unfortunately very little is known on Antiochis. The identity of her husband is unknown and she had a daughter called Aka, also known as Aka I of Commagene.[1][4]
She appeared to have died of unknown causes sometime between the late 30s or early 20s BC. Antiochis was buried along with her mother and her daughter on a burial site known as the Karakush or Karakuş Tumulus.[3] Her brother, the king Mithridates II, built their tomb, and wrote an inscription which praised his sister Antiochis, his niece Aka, and their mother, Isias.[2][3]
