      Cilicia, fought on Pompey's side against Caesar, in <date when-custom="-48">B. C. 48</date>, but was
      pardoned by Caesar, and allowed to retain his dominions. After the death of Caesar he joined
      C. Cassius, and sub. sequently espoused the side of Antony against Octavian. He was killed in
      a sea-fight in <date when-custom="-31">B. C. 31</date>, while fighting under Sosius against M.
      Agrippa. His name is variously written in the ancient authors, but we learn from coins that
      Tarcondimotus is the correct form (<bibl n="D. C. 41.63">D. C. 41.63</bibl>, <bibl n="D. C. 47.26">47.26</bibl>, <bibl n="D.

      Tarcondimotus deserted Antony after the battle of Actium, and united themselves to Octavian;
      but Philopator, who had succeeded his father, was deprived by Octavian of the part of
      Cappadocian Pontus, which he held. In <date when-custom="-20">B. C. 20</date>, however,
      Tarcondimotus, one of the sons, received from Octavian all the possessions of his father, with
      the exception of a few places on the coast. (<bibl n="D. C. 51.2">D. C. 51.2</bibl>, <bibl n="D. C. 51.7">7</bibl>, <bibl n="D. C. 54.9">54.9</bibl>.)</p><p><figure/></p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
