Talk:Ptolemy IV Philopator

message: i was told that the ptolemy's may have been of greek decent...do you know if this is a legit theory?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.190.152.35 (talk • contribs) 17:00, 16 March 2006
:The first few were comparatively decent, but Ptolemy IV marked the beginning of a pronounced  slide into indecency.
:OK, snarkiness aside, they were actually of Macedonian ancestry.  The founder of the dynasty, Ptolemy I Soter, was one of the generals of Alexander the Great.  JamesMLane t c 22:37, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know the significance of the double eagle on coins of this era? qv http://www.ancientsculpturegallery.com/pt15.html Is it the first appearance of the double-headed eagle which became popular in Egypt under the Christian era of the Roman Empire - replacing the dual serpent heads of staffs of the old priesthood?  I understand the later symbolism is of the division between Rome & Byzantium, but might a similar claim to dual domain be represented here?  124.189.9.57 (talk) 13:54, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Pray tell, what exactly are the "orgiastic forms of ... literary dilettantism"? This kind of characterization in a wannabe encyclopedic article is not only extravagant and definitely POV (especially without any examples or proofs), but also outright stupid. --82.131.24.246 (talk) 09:25, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
