Philip (son of Alcimachus of Apollonia)

Philip (Greek: Φίλιππος, flourished 4th century BC) was a Greek nobleman who was a Macedonian Thessalian and his father’s first youngest brother (one of Philip’s paternal uncles) was Lysimachus one of the Diadochi of Alexander the Great.

Philip was a son born to Alcimachus of Apollonia by unnamed Greek woman and had a brother also called Alcimachus. His known grandparent was his paternal grandfather Agathocles. Philip’s father served as an official, and as an active diplomat and administrator in the latter reign of King Philip II of Macedon who reigned 359 BC–336 BC and the first years of his son, King Alexander the Great reigned 336 BC–323 BC. Philip was named in honor of his paternal late uncle Philip, a soldier who died in the service of Alexander the Great.

Philip like his brother, appears to have been born and raised in Apollonia and is known from surviving inscriptional evidence. In a surviving inscription he is mentioned as Philip son of Alcimachus and little is known on him.

Philip (satrap)

Philip (in Greek Φιλιππoς; died 318 BC) was satrap of Sogdiana, to which government he was first appointed by Alexander the Great himself in 327 BC. He retained his post, as did most of the satraps of the more remote provinces, in the arrangements which followed the death of the king (323 BC); but in the subsequent partition at Triparadisus, 321 BC, he was assigned the government of Parthia instead. Here he remained until 318 BC, when Peithon, who was then seeking to establish his power over all the provinces of the East, made himself master of Parthia, and put Philip to death.

Philip (son of Antipater)

Philip (in Greek Φιλιππoς; lived 4th century BC) was son of Antipater, the regent of Macedonia, and brother of Cassander, by whom he was sent in 313 BC, with an army to invade Aetolia. But on his arrival in Acarnania the news that Aeacides, king of Epirus, had recovered possession of his throne, induced him to turn his arms against that monarch, whom he defeated in a pitched battle. Aeacides with the remnant of his forces having afterwards joined the Aetolians, a second action ensued, in which Philip was again victorious, and Aeacides himself fell in the battle. The Aetolians hereupon abandoned the open country, and took refuge in their mountain fastnesses. According to Justin Philip had participated with his two brothers, Cassander and Iollas, in the conspiracy for the murder of Alexander the Great in 323 BC. He was the father of Antipater Etesias.
