Ptolemaeus or Ptolemaeus Sympetesis

21. An Egyptian, surnamed SYMPETESIS, who was appointed by Ptolemy Euergetes II. to govern Cyrene during his absence, when he went to Rome in B. C. 162, to prefer his complaints in person against his brother Philometor. He subsequently joined in the revolt of the Cyrenaeans against Euergetes, and appears to have commanded the army with which they defeated him near the Catabatlhmus. (Plb. 31.26.)

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.
