Zipoetes II, alsoZipoites II orZiboetes II, possiblyTiboetes II (Greek: Zιπoίτης or Zιβoίτης) was a ruler ofBithynia from 279 BCE to 276 BCE; his name, which survives chiefly in Hellenized forms, has three syllables.

Life

[edit]

He was a son of the great rulerZipoetes I of Bithynia, and a younger brother ofNicomedes I of Bithynia. When Nicomedes tried to kill his three brothers, Zipoetes II was the only one to escape. He then raised an insurrection against Nicomedes and succeeded in maintaining himself, for some time, in the independent sovereignty of a considerable part of Bithynia.[1] It was in order to vanquish Zipoetes II, that Nicomedes successfully called in theGauls ofLeonnorius and Lutarius, future founders ofGalatia.[2]
