Hvem giftede sig med Apame (Gattin des Pharnabazos)?

Apame (auch Apama, altgriechisch Ἀπάμα) war eine am Ende des 5. und Beginn des 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. lebende, der Dynastie der Achämeniden entstammende persische Adlige.

Sie war eine Tochter des persischen Großkönigs Artaxerxes II. und wurde von ihrem Vater um 388 v. Chr. mit Pharnabazos, dem Satrapen Phrygiens, verheiratet. Ihr Sohn Artabazos wurde ein wichtiger persischer Vertrauensmann Alexanders des Großen.

Pharnabazus II (Old Iranian: Farnabāzu, Ancient Greek: Φαρνάβαζος Pharnabazos; ruled 413–374 BC) was a Persian soldier and statesman, and Satrap of Hellespontine Phrygia. He was the son of Pharnaces II of Phrygia and grandson of Pharnabazus I, and great-grandson of Artabazus I. He and his male ancestors, forming the Pharnacid dynasty, had governed the satrapy of Hellespontine Phrygia from its headquarters at Dascylium since 478 BC. He married Apama, daughter of Artaxerxes II of Persia, and their son Artabazus also became a satrap of Phrygia. According to some accounts, his granddaughter Barsine may have become Alexander the Great's concubine.

According to research by Theodor Nöldeke, he was descended from Otanes, one of the associates of Darius in the murder of Smerdis.
