About Amyntas
Amyntas was the son of the Persian official Bubares by his Macedonian wife Gygaea. He was named after his maternal grandfather, Amyntas I, who ruled Macedonia as a Persian subject from 512/511 BC. Later, King Xerxes I gave Amyntas the Carian city of Alabanda. Amyntas was possibly the direct successor of the tyrant Aridolis."Bubares, a Persian, had taken to wife Gygaea, Alexander's sister and Amyntas' daughter, who had borne to him that Amyntas of Asia who was called by the name of his mother's father, and to whom the king gave Alabanda, a great city in Phrygia, for his dwelling."
