Antiochos  IX Kyzikenos , ruler of the Greek Seleucid kingdom , was the son of Antiochus VII Sidetes and Cleopatra Thea . Upon the death of his father in Parthia and his uncle Demetrius II Nicator's return to power (129  BC), his mother sent him to Cyzicus on the Bosporus , thus giving him his nickname. He  returned to the Seleukid Kingdom in 116 BC to claim the Seleucid throne from half-brother/cousin Antiochus VIII Grypus , with whom he eventually  divided the kingdom. He was killed in battle by the son of Grypus, Seleucus VI Epiphanes in 96 BC.

The Seleucid Empire in 301 BC.

The Seleucid Empire    was a Hellenistic state ruled by the Seleucid dynasty  founded by Seleucus I Nicator following the division of  the empire created by Alexander the Great . Seleucus received Babylonia and, from there, expanded his  dominions to include much of Alexander's near eastern territories. At the height of its  power, it included central Anatolia , the Levant , Mesopotamia , Kuwait , Persia , Afghanistan , Turkmenistan , and northwest parts of India .

The Seleucid Empire was a major center of Hellenistic culture that maintained the  preeminence of Greek customs where a Greek-Macedonian  political elite dominated, mostly in the urban areas. The Greek population of  the cities who formed the dominant elite were reinforced by emigration from Greece . Seleucid expansion into Anatolia and Greece was abruptly halted after decisive defeats at the hands of the Roman army . Their attempts to defeat their old  enemy Ptolemaic Egypt were frustrated by Roman  demands. Much of the eastern part of the empire was conquered by the Parthians under Mithridates I of Parthia in the mid-2nd century  BC, yet the Seleucid kings continued to rule a rump state from the Seleukid Kingdom until the invasion by Armenian king Tigranes the Great and their ultimate overthrow  by the Roman general Pompey .
