Question

As the son-in-law of Mithridates, he offered him protection and support in his vast kingdom, during the Great Mithridatic War.

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question restatement: The prompt asks to identify who, as Mithridates' son-in-law, offered protection and support to him in his vast kingdom during the Great Mithridatic War.
Option 1: Tigranes. This is the correct choice, because Tigranes II, known as Tigranes the Great, married Mithridates VI’s daughter and aligned with Mithridates, providing protection and support to his kingdom during the conflict. His alliance with Mithridates is a well-documented historical fact that strengthened Mithridates' position in Asia Minor and the surrounding region.
Option 2: Pharnaces. Pharnaces II (often called Pharnaces II of Pontus) was Mithridates VI’s son, not his son-in-law. Since the clue specifies a son-in-law relationship, this option does not fit the described familial tie, even though Pharnaces played his own role in later conflicts with Rome.
Option 3: Machares. Machares was another son of Mithridates VI, not a son-in-law. He did not marry into Mithridates’ family; rather, he held his own position in the Pontic realm and is associated with different branches of Mithridates’ internecine and regional dynamics.
Option 4: Tiridates. Tiridates (in various contexts) refers to Armenian or Parthian rulers with the name Tiridates. This name does not designate Mithridates’ son-in-law and thus does not fit the described familial connection or alliance during the Mithridatic War.
Option 5: Xiphares. Xiphares was another son of Mithridates VI, not a son-in-law. Like Machares, his relation to Mithridates is within his immediate royal offspring, not through marriage into the family, so this option fails to satisfy the son-in-law criterion.
Overall reasoning: The key detail is the exact familial link—son-in-law—which narrows the correct answer to Tigranes, who is historically recorded as Mithridates VI’s son-in-law and ally during the Great Mithridatic War. The other candidates are sons of Mithridates or names associated with different lineages, and therefore do not match the “son-in-law” relationship required by the prompt.
