Aziz al-Aziz al-Arabi,
the leader of the Antioch region, who crowned and removed the Saluki kings
Greek history books mention Azizus the Arab, who lived in the early 1st century BC and is called the Phylarch of the Arabs, the Arab sheikh of Antioch. This leader was very powerful. He was the king of the Salukis.
The historian Diodorus Siculus (Book 40) states that the Saluki king Philip II, who was called by the rebels against Antiochus rule, went to Aziz al-Arabi, welcomed him, and placed the crown on his head and returned him to power, but Philip later realized that Aziz al-Arabi and his ally, The basin of Assi wanted to kill him and kill all the kings of the Seleucids.
