High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Antigonus III Doson (263 BC - 221 BC) was king of Macedon from 229 BC - 221 BC. He belonged to the Antigonid dynasty. Grandson of Demetrius Poliorcetes & cousin of Demetrius II, who - after the latter died in battle - rescued Macedonia & restored Antigonid control of Greece. Modern encyclopedic articles sometimes mistakenly identify him as either the "half-brother" or "nephew" of Demetrius II. Given the complex family relations of Macedonian dynasties & the tendency of Macedonian rulers to give children of different wives the same name, such confusion is understandable. Doson's father, however, was actually Demetrius the Fair, [briefly king of Cyrene], the son of Demetrius Poliorcetes & his third wife, Ptolemaïs, [daughter of Ptolemy I & sister of Ptolemy II. It was Doson's father [[Demetrius the Fair][] who was half-brother of the father of Demetrius II Antigonus Gonatas, who was Poliorcetes' son by his first wife, Phila, Antipater's daughter & Cassander's sister. Beyond this fact there is only circumstantial inference from the few surviving anecdotal reports to clarify Gonatas' background.
