About Amyntas
Amyntas, son of Antiochus, was a Macedonian general, fugitive and traitor. As officer of Philip II, he and Amyntas were awarded proxenies by the Oropians in Boeotia before 338 BC. After the death of Philip II, Amyntas fled from Macedonia. Arrian ascribes his flight from Macedonia to his hatred and fear of Alexander the Great; the ground of these feelings is not stated, but Mitford connects him with the plot of Pausanias of Orestis and the murder of Philip.
