'''Cleopatra IV''' reigned as queen of [[Egypt]] briefly from [[116 BC|116]]-[[115 BC]], jointly with her husband [[Ptolemy IX of Egypt|Ptolemy IX Lathyros]]. She later became queen consort of Syria.

She married Lathyros, her brother, in 116 BC, and thus became joint ruler of Egypt. However, her high position only lasted a few months, for their mother and co-ruler [[Cleopatra III of Egypt|Cleopatra III]] pushed her out and replaced her with [[Cleopatra Selene]].

Very upset with her mother, Cleopatra fled Egypt and went to [[Cyprus]], where she raised an army and attempted to marry her other brother, [[Ptolemy X of Egypt|Ptolemy X Alexander]]. However, Alexander wouldn't marry her, so she went to [[Syria]], where [[Antiochus IX Cyzicenus]] accepted her large army as a dowry and married her.
