Antigonus I Monophthalmus
382 BCE–301 BCE · Celaenae (Apamea, Dinar)
Antigonus I Monophthalmus, meaning "the One-Eyed," was one of the most powerful of the generals who divided the empire of Alexander the Great. Based in Asia Minor, he came closer than any of the successors to reuniting Alexander's dominions under a single ruler, taking the title of king in 306 BCE together with his son Demetrius. His growing power drove the other successors into a coalition against him. He was defeated and killed at the Battle of Ipsus in 301 BCE, after which his empire was partitioned among the victors.
