Philip V
was king of
Macedonia
from
221 BC
to
179 BC
. He belonged to the
Antigonid dynasty
. The son of
Demetrius II
and Chryseis, Philip was nine years old at his father's death in
230
-
229 BC
. His cousin,
Antigonus Doson
, administered the kingdom as regent until his death in
221 BC
-
220 BC
, when Philip was eighteen years old. Philip then ascended the throne and reigned until 179 BC. His reign was occupied in the vain struggle to maintain the old Macedonian supremacy in the
Balkan peninsula
, which became hopeless after the intervention of
Rome
and the decisive
battle of Cynoscephalae
(
197 BC
). He was succeeded by his eldest son,
Perseus
who ruled as the last king of Macedon.
