2. A king of the Nabathaeans in Arabia Petraea. He appears to have been the successor of Malchus [No. 3], and is mentioned both bv Strabo and Josephus as an indolent man, who left the management of all his affairs to Syllaeus. It was in his reign that the expedition of Aelius Gallus into Arabia took place, in B. C. 24. (Strab. xvi. p.780, &c.; Jos. Ant. 15.9.3, 16.7.6, Bell. Jud. 1.24.6.)
