Abstract

The meeting between Marius and Mithri­dates Eupator prevented a Pontic annexation of Cappdocia. The Roman leader warned the Pontic king and threatened him with war. Mithridates belonged to the Ariarathid house of Cappadocia because Laodice, the king’s mother, was a member of this royal family. Accordingly, Eupator tried to intervene in Cappado­cian affairs, as shown in the coincidence between his accession to the throne and the murder of Ariarathes VI ca.110 B.C. After the death of both Ariarathes VII and his brother Ariarathes VIII, Mithridates was the eldest male member in the Ariarathid line of succes­sion, and an annexation of Cappadocia would have been well justified. The setting of the young Pontic prince Ariarathes IX on the throne was a temporary solution, but both Rome and a sector of the Cappado­cian nobility did not agree, and Ariobarzanes I Philor­ho­maios was appointed king.

Abstract

Marius ile Mithridates Eupator arasındaki kar­şılaşma, Kappadokia’nın Roma tarafından ilhak edil­mesini önledi. Romalı lider, Pontos kralını ikaz ederek onu savaşla tehdit etti. Kralın annesi Laodike, Ariara­thes kraliyet ailesinin bir mensubu olduğu için Mithridates de Kappadokia Ariarathes Hanedanı’na mensup­tu. Bundan dolayı Eupator, kendisinin tahta geçmesi ile VI. Ariarathes’in MÖ. yak. 110 yılında katle­dilmesi arasındaki rastlantıda görüleceği üzere Kapadokia’daki olaylara müdahil olmaya çalıştı. Gerek VII. Ariarathes, gerekse kardeşi VIII. Ariarathes’in ölümlerinden sonra Mithridates, tahta geçme husu­sun­da Ariarathes sülalesinin en büyük erkek üyesiydi, Kapadokia’nın ilhakı da pekâlâ meşrulaşmış olacaktı. Genç Pontos prensi IX. Ariarathes’in tahta çıkması geçici bir çözümdü, fakat hem Roma, hem de Kappa­dokia soylular kesimi buna razı gelmediler, I. Ari­obar­zanes Philorhomaios da kral tayin edildi.
