  1. Ptolemy VII Neos Philopator

    Ptolemy VII Neos Philopator lang el , Ptolema os N os Philop t r was an Egypt ian king of the Ptolemaic dynasty Ptolemaic period. His reign is controversial, and it is possible that he did not reign at all, but was only granted royal dignity posthumously. Even his identity is unclear. According to one reconstruction, he was the son of Ptolemy VI Philometor and Cleopatra II of Egypt , he reigned briefly with his father in 145 BC, and for a short time after that, and was murdered by his uncle, Ptolemy VIII Physcon , who succeeded him. Alternatively, some scholars identify Ptolemy Neos Philopator with Ptolemy Memphites , a son of Ptolemy VIII and Cleopatra II who was murdered ... king yet others point to a number of minor co regents &ndash all of whom were named Ptolemy as was the tradition .... Occasionally, the numbering is reversed, and Ptolemy VIII Physcon is numbered as Ptolemy VII, with a boy king &ndash the one named Ptolemy Memphites, most likely &ndash numbered Ptolemy VIII in some older sources, Ptolemy VII is omitted altogether. This lowers the numbering of all the later Ptolemies, until Caesarion is Ptolemy XIV the nicknames are unchanged, of course.
