High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Arsinoe II (316 BC-July 270 BC), was queen of Thrace, Asia Minor and Macedonia as wife of King Lysimachus, and later co-ruler of Egypt with her brother and husband Ptolemy II Philadelphus (Greek: , which means "Ptolemy the sibling-loving"). She was the daughter of king Ptolemy I Soter, the founder of the Hellenistic state of Egypt, and his second wife Berenice I. Arsinoe, at the age of 15, married the King Lysimachus to whom she bore three sons, Ptolemy, Lysimachus and Philip. In order to position her sons for the throne, she had Lysimachus's first son, Agathocles, poisoned on account of treason. After Lysimachus' death in battle in 281 BC, she fled to Cassandrea and married her half-brother Ptolemy Keraunos, son of Ptolemy I from his first wife, Euridice. The marriage was for political reasons as they both claimed the throne of Macedonia / Thrace (by the time of his death Lysimachus was ruler of both regions, and his power extended to south Greece and Asia Minor as well).
