Does anyone know anything about when
Cleopatra (Philip's second wife) was born, and
died and all that?? Specifically, how old was
she when she married Philip?
Thanks!!

asap if you know. I can't find info anywhere

Hi Jillian,For a start, Cleopatra (if you mean Attalus' niece, which I assume you do) wasn't Philip's second wife, but his seventh (or something like that). Olympias, Alexander's mother, was his third, after all.As to when she was born, no-one knows, but she was probably only about 16 when Philip married her (in 337, I think). We aren't entirely sure when she died, but it was either late in 336 or at some point in 335.All the bestMarcus
