<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4584128, member: 26302&quot;]Very fair sir. </p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I would be surprised if the later dates hold. It seems very late, stepping all over Seleucid, Parthian, and other series dates to have them struck so late. Earlier dating, like near the end of Alexander&#039;s reign to when the Seleucids took over the area seems to make most sense. Plus, if that dating is used, &quot;Sophytes&quot; could be the historical Sophytes, the ruler who surrendered to Alexander and was allowed to rule his kingdom. When in doubt, I prefer not to invent a second person with an unusual name, otherwise unknown to history, simply to make convenient timelines work. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
