Research Notes:
by the end of the third century, a descent of Seleucides was interpreted as implying a direct descent of Alexander. Two explanations: (1) the ancestry is completely fictitious and rests on a spiritual relationship of Alexander towards his Seleukos successor, and it would be vain to look for a genealogical connection really between the two men, invented or not, and (2) a physical genealogy, invented or not, has been produced in the third century to link up the blood the Seleucides to the time of Alexander the Great. It is necessary to prefer the second. [Ref: Settipani LGA p135]

Antiochos I exaults his royal ancestors, while only his father reigned. He does not make any reference to the kings of Macedonia, but to the kings of Persia which descend from Antiochos by his mother. To the fourth century AD, Libanios, relating to the founding of his native city, Antioch, presented Seleukos I as a relative of Temenides. Possible that Antiochos III The Great, in third century, based on the importance of his conquests, decided that he could add the Macedonian conqueror in the royal lists. [Ref: Settipani LGA p136]

In the seleucide genealogy there are two places with unknown persons - the spouse of Antiochos II and of Seleukos II. General approval today that spouse of Antiochos II was Laodike, daughter of Achaios. [Ref: Settipani LGA p136]

name Alexandros given to a son of Achaios I, leads CS to think that Achaios married a woman that was related to Alexander the Great [Ref: Settipani LGA p136]
