Шаблон:Short description Crateuas (Шаблон:Lang-grc, modern Шаблон:Lang), also called Craterus (Шаблон:Lang-grc, Шаблон:Lang), was according to some ancient sources the lover, and killer, of Archelaus I of Macedon, whom he killed to become a king himself.[1][2] According to another version, Crateuas killed the king because Archelaus had promised to give him one of his daughters in marriage, but later gave her to someone else.[3] A third version asserts that Archelaus was unintentionally struck by Crateuas during a hunt.[4] Modern historians view the idea that Crateuas actually reigned as king of Macedon to be "obviously absurd".[5]
