Cappadocia from Old Persian Katpatuka was a satrap y province of the Achaemenid Empire used by the Achaemenids to administer the regions beyond the Taurus Mountains and the Euphrates river. The Satrapy belonged to the third tax district and paid an estimated 360 talents a year in tribute. The first satrap governor known by name is Ariaramnes , who ruled sometime at the beginning of the reign of the Achaemenid king Darius the Great . His successors are unknown, although Gobryas , the half brother of Xerxes I of Persia Xerxes , commanded the Cappadocians in 480 BCE. During the reign of Artaxerxes II , Cappadocia was divided, becoming Paphlagonia and Cappadocia Proper . The satrap of southern Cappadocia then became Datames abridged from Datamithra , who led an unsuccessful revolt and was later assassinated in 362 BCE. The last Achaemenid satrap of Cappadocia was Mithrobarzanes , who died in 334 BCE at the Battle of the Granicus fighting Wars of Alexander the Great Alexanders invading army . ref http www.livius.org cao caz cappadocia cappadocia.html Cappadocia ref See also Achaemenid Empire Cappadocia References reflist Achaemenid Provinces Category Achaemenid satrapies Category Achaemenid Cappadocia pl Kapadocja satrapia ... more details

Orophernes Nicephorus in Greek language Greek O o N o was one of the two false sons whom Antiochis imposed upon her husband, Ariarathes IV of Cappadocia Ariarathes IV , king of Cappadocia . On the birth, however, of a real son, named Mithradates afterwards Ariarathes V of Cappadocia Ariarathes V , Orophernes, so that he might not set up pretensions to the throne, was sent away into Ionia . When Ariarathes V refused to marry the sister of Demetrius I Soter , king of Seleucid Empire Syria , the king supported the claims of Orophernes to the crown of Cappadocia. In 157 BC , when Ariarathes had been deposed and had fled to Rome , Orophernes sent two ambassadors Timotheus and Diogenes of Cappadocia Diogenes to the capital city to join the emissaries of Demetrius in opposing his brother. According to Appian the Roman Republic Romans decided that the two claimants should share the throne between them. We are told, however, that Orophernes did not hold the kingdom long, and it is alleged that his reign was signalized by a departure from the more simple customs of his ancestors and by the introduction of systematic debauchery. To supply his lavish extravagance, he oppressed and pillaged his subjects, putting many to death and confiscating their property. He deposited 400 talents with the citizens of Priene as a resource in case of a reversal of fortune, but the Priennians later returned the money. When Orophernes business affairs were on the decline, he became alarmed that his soldiers might mutiny over unpaid wages so he plundered an ancient temple of Zeus to pay them off. Orophernes ...

When Aedesius was obliged to quit Cappadocia, Eustathius was left behind in his place. Eunapius , to whom alone we are indebted for our knowledge of Eustathius, declares that he was the best man and a great orator , whose speech in sweetness equalled the songs of the Siren s. His reputation was so great, that when the Sassanid Empire Persians besieged Antioch , and the empire was threatened with a war, the emperor Constantius II was prevailed upon to send Eustathius, although he was a pagan, as ambassador to king Shapur II , in 358, who is said to have been quite enchanted by his oratory. His countrymen and friends who longed for his return, sent deputies to him, but he refused to come back to his country on account of certain signs and omens .

Saint Leo of Cappadocia was a Christian saint . Leo was an ascetic from Cappadocia whose life and martyrdom is described in John Moschos Pratum Spirituale The Spiritual Meadow . Leo was distinguished by his warm hospitality to all his visitors, whom he considered to be sent by God. He had the habit of saying with an enigmatic smile Now I am on my way to become an Emperor . The word Basileos king in Byzantium meant also Emperor . He was frequently derided, and even considered to be out of his wits, for this saying, since there had never been an emperor from Cappadocia. Once pagan soldiers attacked the surroundings of the town near which Leo lived. With all the inhabitants he took refuge within the walls of the town. Only few old men were caught by the intruders. Leo left the fortress and went to the enemy camp offering himself to the pagans in the place of the old men, who because of their weakness would be of no use to them, whereas Leo had sufficient strength to be of profit. The pagans agreed, released the elders and took Leo instead. However, when Leo was loaded with sacks and asked to follow the soldiers, it turned out that Leo himself was not apt for such physical labors even though he tried to keep his word and serve them being weakened by his constant prayer s and vigil s. The pagans, believing that Leo had tricked them in order to rescue his older compatriots, were enraged and behead ed him. Only then did the people realize that when Leo had spoken about becoming an emperor, he meant not earthly, but heavenly empire, for he fulfilled the commandment of the Savior There is no greater love than that when one lays down his soul for brethren , and therefore received the crown ... .

Gregory of Cappadocia served as Patriarch of Alexandria appointed head of the church that became the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria Coptic Orthodox Church and the Greek Church of Alexandria between 339 and 346. This appointment is not accepted by the church of Alexandria as it was not according to church laws. The appointment was made due to political pressure on Emperor Constantius by Bishop Eusebius of Nicomedia , who had been one of Athanasius of Alexandria Athanasius I s strong opponents and a supporter of Arius from the very beginning. He was enthroned during one of the exiles of Athanasius of Alexandria Athanasius I from Alexandria. Most in the Eastern Orthodox Church of Alexandria and Coptic Christianity Coptic Church deny his papacy and say that Athanasius of Alexandria Athanasius I was the true patriarch. Gregory was a well spoken and a close friend to the Roman Emperor and that became the reason as to why he became a Patriarch of Alexandria, however the Coptic Church denies him that crown. His Arian views were not favoured in Egypt at the time and to this date the Christians believe that his views are heretical. He died in 345, probably from violence.
