Antiochis of Commagene ( Ancient Greek: Aντιoχίς) — was a Princess from the Kingdom of Commagene, who lived in the 1st century BC. [1] [2] She was of Greek and Iranian descent.

Life

Antiochis was the second daughter of King Antiochus I Theos of Commagene and Queen Isias Philostorgos. [3] Unfortunately very little is known on Antiochis. The identity of her husband is unknown and she had a daughter called Aka, also known as Aka I of Commagene. [1] [4]

She appeared to have died of unknown causes sometime between the late 30s or early 20s BC. Antiochis was buried along with her mother and her daughter on a burial site known as the Karakush or Karakuş Tumulus. [3] Her brother, the king Mithridates II, built their tomb, and wrote an inscription which praised his sister Antiochis, his niece Aka, and their mother, Isias. [2] [3]
