She is number 9 on this list published by the International Council of Museums. Aqma died some time in the middle of the 2nd century CE and her effigy was placed in the elegant Breiki family tomb in the necropolis. After the tomb was excavated (1958), her portrait was taken along with those of her relatives to the Palmyra Museum.

King of Pontus, centered below the Caspian Sea, was the Hellenistic enemy of Rome. He controlled most of the shores of the Black Sea and its huge resources. In his first war, he conquered all of Asia Minor, where he massacred resident Romans and Italians. He took Greece before Roman legions forced him back, in his 3rd war he was pushed into Crimea where he killed himself. [/QB][/QUOTE]
