Meda of Odessos
Meda of Odessos (), died 336 BC, was a Thracian princess, daughter〔Readings in Greek History: Sources and Interpretations by D. Brendan Nagle and Stanley M. Burstein,2006,page 244: "... Also when he conquered Thrace, Cothelas, the king of the Thracians, came to him with his daughter Meda..."〕 of the king Cothelas〔Atlas of Classical History by R. Talbert,1989,page 63,"Getae under Cothelas"〕 of Getae〔,Alexander the Great (Greece and Rome: Texts and Contexts) by Keyne Cheshirepage 2: "... the north-west, Philinna and Nicesipolis from Thessaly to the south, Meda of the Thracian Getae north-east of Macedonia, and Z Introduction ..."〕 and wife of king Philip II of Macedon. Philip married her after Olympias.
According to N. G. L. Hammond, when Philip died, Meda committed suicide so that she would follow Philip to the Ades. The people of Macedonia, who were not used to such honours to their kings by their consorts, buried her with him at the Great Tumuli of Vergina, in a separate room. The second larnax found in the tomb might belong to her.〔Elizabeth Donnelly Carney, ''Women and monarchy in Macedonia'', p. 236-237.〕
