	Ptolemy IV Philopator, The Fourth King of Egypt's Greek Period
		Under the Ptolemies, there was no real national foundation established for their rule in Egypt as the successor and son of Ptolemy III Euergetes, Ptolemy IV Philopator took the throne.
		From the time of Ptolemy IV onward, the dynasty's declining prestige abroad was matched by faltering administration at home, though it is hard to decide whether constant dynastic intrigues, minority regencies, military reversals and economic crises were primarily responsible for the breakdown of the system, or whether simmering anarchy and anti-governmental feelings contributed more.
		Ptolemy IV took the throne in about 222 BC, using the Egyptian name Iwaennetjerwy-menkhwy Setepptah Userkare Sekhemankhamun, a name that means "Heir of the [two] Beneficent Gods, Chosen of Ptah, Powerful is the Soul of Re, Living Image of Amun".

	Agathoclea mistress of Ptolemy IV
		Philammon (Polybius 15.33.11), appointed libyarch of Cyrene by Agathocles, and named as the murderer of Arsinoe III, was caught up in the general massacre of Agathocles' family, along with his wife and son; they may well have been related.
		Ptolemy II In view of the family's apparently long-standing high connections, this strikes me as plausible, even though Agathocles, the brother of Agathoclea, is made (Polybius 15.31.4) to offer to forgo all his income and to plead for the opportunity to retire "into his original obscurity" when begging for his life.
		If correct, then Ptolemy the son of Agesarchus, ambassador to Rome in 204/3 (Polybius 15.25.34) may, from his father's name, also have been a relative.
