Philotera
Philotera ((ギリシア語: Φιλωτέρα), born 315/309 BC-probably after 282 BC and before 268 BC〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Philotera )〕) was a Greek Macedonian noblewoman and a Greek Egyptian princess of the Ptolemaic dynasty.
Philotera was the daughter of Ptolemy I Soter and Berenice I of Egypt.〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Philotera )〕 She had one older sister, Arsinoe II, and a younger brother, the future Pharaoh Ptolemy II Philadelphus.〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Berenice I )〕 From her parents' previous marriages, Philotera had various half-maternal and half-paternal siblings.
Little is known of her life. Philotera died sometime before the accession of Ptolemy II to the Ptolemaic throne and before Arsinoe II died.〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Philotera, Footnote 5 )〕 The fact that Philotera died before her sister did is demonstrated by a hymn written by Callimachus on the death of Arsinoe II.〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Philotera, Footnote 3 )〕
After Philotera died, Ptolemy II deified her as a goddess. Ptolemy II erected a temple in her honor in Alexandria. Greeks and Egyptians worshiped her along with Arsinoe II, and Ptolemy II created a religious cult in her honor.〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Philotera, Footnote 5 )〕〔(Ptolemaic Genealogy: Arsinoe II, Footnote 17 )〕 Ptolemy II also founded a port town in the Red Sea called Philotera, which is modern Safaga.〔(The Maritime Incense Route Nabataea: Philotera )〕
