death of his mother Stratonice and his wife Berenice. During her reign as Queen of Pergamon, two statues were dedicated to Stratonice. One was set up at Pergamon and the other on the Greek island of Delos. The Pergamene statue was dedicated by Attalus III. Most probably due to her family's connections in Athens, the Demos of Athens honoured Stratonice with a marble statue of her on Delos. The Greek sculptor Damophon sculpted her statue free of charge. Both statues' inscriptions only state that Stratonice was the daughter of Ariarathes IV. Her Delian statue states on a bronze plaque "her virtue and goodwill toward it". Both statues of Stratonice identify her as the Queen of Pergamon and a queen of the Attalid Dynasty. These two statues represented her political role in Pergamon. References Sources C.
