Talk:Diodotus II

Untitled
The death of Diodotus II is likely to have happened in 223/222 BC, since Strabon refers to it as being simultaneous with a conflict between the kings of Syria and Media. This should according to Jeffrey D Lerner (The Impact of Seleucid Decline on the Eastern Iranian Plateau) refer to the war between Antiochus IIIand the usurper Molon.
