Glaphyra
Glaphyra ((ギリシア語:Γλαφύρα); born around 35 BCE-died around 7 CE) was an Anatolian Princess from Cappadocia〔Kasher, ''King Herod: a persecuted persecutor: a case study in psychohistory and psychobiography'', p.298〕 and through marriage was related to the Herodian Dynasty.〔''Jewish Women: a comprehensive historical encyclopedia'' Jewish Women’s Archive – Herodian Women〕
==Family and early life==
Glaphyra was a royal princess of Greek, Armenian and Persian descent. Her father was the Roman ally king Archelaus of Cappadocia, her only natural sibling was her younger brother Archelaus of Cilicia.〔Dueck, ''Strabo’s cultural geography: the making of a kolossourgia'', p.208〕 Her paternal grandfather was a Roman ally and priest-king Archelaus of the temple state of Comana, Cappadocia,〔(Ancient Library, Archelaus no.3&4 )〕 while her paternal grandmother, for whom she was named, was the ''hetaera'' Glaphyra.〔Syme, ''Anatolica: studies in Strabo'' p.167〕 The priest-kings of Comana were descended from Archelaus, the favorite high-ranking general of Mithridates VI of Pontus, who may have married a daughter of Mithridates VI.〔Mayor, ''The Poison King: the life and legend of Mithradates, Rome’s deadliest enemy'' pp.114, 138〕
Glaphyra's mother, the first wife of Archelaus, was an Armenian Princess whose name is unknown and who died by 8 BCE.〔Syme, ''Anatolica: studies in Strabo'' p.150〕 She may have been a daughter of King Artavasdes II of Armenia, son of Tigranes the Great and Cleopatra of Pontus, a daughter of Mithridates VI from his first wife his sister Laodice.〔 If so, Glaphyra’s parents may have been distant relatives.
She was born and raised in Cappadocia. In 25 BCE, the Emperor Augustus gave Archelaus extra territories to govern, including the port of Elaiussa Sebaste, which Archelaus renamed in honor of Augustus.〔Dueck, ''Strabo’s cultural geography: the making of a kolossourgia'', p.205〕 The royal family settled there, and Archelaus built a royal residence and a palace on the island in the harbor.〔Rigsby, ''Asylia: territorial inviolability in the Hellenistic world'', p.464〕 Glaphyra held the high ranking title of ‘king’s daughter’, which is reflective of her descent and high birth. She was an attractive and dynamic woman, reputed charming, desirable, and a force to be reckoned with.〔Salisbury, ''Women in the ancient world'', p.137〕
