Artakama, daughter of Artabazus, a grandson of king Artaxerxes II, satrap of Daskyleion under Artaxerxes III and Darius III, satrap of Bactria under Alexander 2. Her mother is not specifically stated but was probably the only known wife of Artabazus, an anonymous sister of the Rhodian generals Memnon and Mentor, who were in Persian service in the late 340 BCs and the 330 BCs. Artakama was the second wife of Ptolemy I, whom she married in April 324 BC. Ptolemy had no known children by Artakama.
