The last members of the once mighty Seleucid dynasty are shadowy figures; local dynasts with complicated family ties whose identities are hard to ascertain: many of them also bore the same names.
Seleucus VII Philometor was unknown until recently: from coins issued by him and his mother Kleopatra Selene it is assumed that he was the younger brother of Antiochus XIII Asiaticus and "reigned" during the occupation of Syria by Armenian king Tigranes (83-69 BC).
The young boy-king is probably the same Seleucus who later went to marry a Ptolemaic princess called Berenice IV (a sister of the famous Cleopatra VII of Egypt) but allegedly was murdered by the discontented bride for his lack of manners.

The reign of his son and successor Seleucus IV Philopator (187-175 BC) was largely spent in attempts to pay the large indemnity, and Seleucus was ultimately assassinated by his minister Heliodorus.
Demetrius Nicator's brother, Antiochus VII, was ultimately able to restore a fleeting unity and vigour to the Seleucid domains, but he too proved unequal to the Parthian threat: he was killed in battle with the Parthians in 129 BC, leading to the final collapse of the Seleucid hold on Babylonia.
