Ptolemy, son of Agesarchos was a governor of Cyprus for the Hellenistic Ptolemy Egypt.
In 204 BC, Ptolemy was sent to Rome as an ambassador.[1] Between 197 and 180 BC Ptolemy was governor of Cyprus, after having inherited the office by Polykrates of Argos, the son of Mnasiades.[2] His daughter was Eirene of Alexandria, who went on to become a Panathenaian victor, and a priestess for the Ptolemaic queen.[3]
