(Θεόξενα).

1. The last wife of Agathocles, king of Syracuse, to whom she bore two children. She is called by Justin an Egyptian princess, but her parentage is unknown. Droysen, however, conjectures that she was a daughter of Berenice by her first husband. According to Justin, Agathocles, when he felt his death approaching, sent away Theoxena and her two children to Egypt, but the whole of his narrative is subject to grave difficulties. (Just. 23.2 Droysen, Hellenism. vol. i. pp. 560, 602.)
