[edit] Status of Perseus, one of Philip V's sons

According to the Oxford "Who's Who in the Classical World", Perseus was Philip V's eldest son. Philip V's other, younger, son was called Demetrius. Demetrius became an ally of the Romans because they promised him the throne of Macedonia, something that could only happen with the demise of both Philip and Perseus. It was this that led Philip to eventually execute Demetrius for treason. --Chaleyer61 (talk) 05:06, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
