Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox royalty Amyntas IV (Greek: Ἀμύντας Δ΄) was a titular king of the Greek kingdom of Macedonia in 359 BC and member of the Argead dynasty.[1]
Biography
Amyntas was a son of King Perdiccas III of Macedon. He was born in about 365 BC.[2]
After his father's death in 359 BC he became king, but he was only a child. His uncle, Philip II of Macedon, who was Perdiccas' brother, became his tutor and regent. In that same year, Philip declared himself king of Macedonia, expropriating his young nephew.
Amyntas was not judged dangerous enough to be a menace to Philip, who even gave him his daughter Cynane in marriage. The succession of Amyntas' cousin Alexander in 336 BC changed things — Alexander immediately had Amyntas executed.
Eurydice II of Macedon was Amyntas' daughter.
