  1. Ptolemy XI Alexander II

    ptolemy Ptolemy XI Alexander II lang grc , Ptolema os Al xandros was a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty who ruled Egypt for a few days in 80  BC. Ptolemy XI was born to Ptolemy  X Alexander  I and either Cleopatra Selene I Cleopatra Selene or Berenice  III . His uncle Ptolemy IX of Egypt Ptolemy  IX Lathryos died in 81  BC or 80  BC, leaving no legitimate heir, and so Cleopatra Berenice   Berenice  III ruled alone for a time. However, Rome s Lucius Cornelius Sulla Sulla wanted a pro Roman ruler on the throne, and sent the young son of Ptolemy  X to Egypt, displaying Ptolemy Alexander s will in Rome as justification for this obvious intervention. The will also required Ptolemy  XI to marry Cleopatra Berenice, who was his stepmother and half sister or possibly his natural mother the ancient sources are unclear . However, nineteen days after the marriage, Ptolemy murdered his bride for unknown reasons, an unwise move since Berenice was very popular Ptolemy was immediately lynched by the citizens of Alexandria . He was succeeded by his cousin Ptolemy XII of Egypt Ptolemy  XII .

His mother was Bertha, illegitimate daughter of Henry V, Holy Roman Emperor . He was, by inheritance, an imperial vassal, but Pope Adrian IV granted him the papal property the great fortress in Tusculum and invested him as a papal vassal as well. He swore homage on 9 July 1155 to the pope excepto contra Imperatorem &mdash except against the emperor. In turn, he surrendered Montisfortini and Velletri Faiola to the papacy. The Commune of Rome Senate of Rome , however, refused to ratify the grant of the fortress to the count. In 1163, he was invested with the port of Torre Astura Astura , which his father had illegally held from the church, by the abbot of S. Alessio.

The Commune of Rome Senate of Rome , however, refused to ratify the grant of the fortress to the count. In 1167, Raino appears for the first time as sole count. Pope Alexander III tried at that time to dissuade the citizens from attacking Tusculum, but to no avail. Raino called in the aid of Rainald of Dassel , the archchancellor of Italy and archbishop of Cologne . Raino and Rainald were besieged by the Romans in the old fortress of Tusculum. Help was requested from Christian of Mainz Christian , archbishop of Mainz , then in Ancona .

  1. Ptolemy of Cyprus

    Ptolemy of Cyprus was the king of Cyprus c. 80 58 BC. He was the younger brother of Ptolemy XII Auletes , king of Ptolemaic Kingdom Egypt , and, like him, an illegitimate son of Ptolemy IX Lathyros . He appears to have been acknowledged king of Cyprus at the same time that his brother Auletes obtained the possession of the throne of Egypt, 80 BC. He neglected the precaution of obtaining confirmation of his sovereignty at Rome , and made the additional error of offending Publius Clodius Pulcher , by failing to ransom him when he had fallen into the hands of Cilicia n pirates. ref Strabo, xiv. Appian, B. C. , ii. 23 ref When Clodius became tribune 58 BC , he enacted a law to deprive Ptolemy of his kingdom, and reduce Cyprus to a Roman province . Cato the Younger Cato , who was entrusted with carrying out this decree, advised Ptolemy to submit, offering him his personal safety, with the office of high priest at Paphos and a generous pension. Ptolemy refused, and, wholly unprepared to resist Roman power and deciding to die a king, put an end to his own life, 58 BC. ref Strabo, xiv. Dio Cassius , xxxviii. 30, xxxix. 22 Livy, Epit. civ.
