Stateira

4. A sister of Mithridates the Great, who was put to death by his orders at Pharnacia, together with her sister Roxana, and his two wives Berenice and Monima, for fear of their falling as captives into the hands of Lucullus. Stateira met her fate with a dignity and composure worthy of her royal birth. She was about forty years of age, but unmarried. (Plut. Lucull. 18.)

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
