Seleucus III Ceraunus, later also known as Soter, was the eldest son of Seleucus II Callinicus and Laodice II, and for a few years - between 226/5 and 223 BCE - king of the Seleucid Empire. His epithets mean "Thunderbolt" and "Savior," while his birth name was Alexander. In 225 BCE, following the death of his father Seleucus II - who succumbed to injuries from a fall from his horse - Seleucus III succeeded him as king of the Seleucid Empire. In 223 BCE, he was assassinated in Asia Minor by courtiers during a campaign against Attalus I of Pergamon. His brother Antiochus subsequently ascended the throne.
