==Marriage and issue== Arsinoe married Lysimachus of Thrace in 300 or 299 BC and had three children: {| class="wikitable" |- !Name!!Birth!!Death!!Notes |- |[[Ptolemy Epigonos|Ptolemy]]||299/8 BC||February 240 BC|| Co-regent of Egypt with her younger brother, Ptolemy II (267-259 BC), rebelled in 259 BC, subsequently Ptolemaic vassal ruler of [[Telmessus]] until 240 BC. |- |[[Lysimachus (son of Lysimachus)|Lysimachus]] ||297/6 BC ||279 BC|| Murdered by Ptolemy Keraunos. |- |[[Philip (son of Lysimachus)|Philip]] ||294 BC||279 BC|| Murdered by Ptolemy Keraunos. |} After Lysimachus' death in 281 BC, Arsinoe was briefly married to her half-brother Ptolemy Ceraunus from 280 to 279 BC and then to her full-blooded, younger brother Ptolemy II of Egypt from the late 270s BC until her death. Ptolemy II's children by his first wife [[Arsinoe I]], including his eventual successor [[Ptolemy III]], were posthumously declared to be children of Arsinoe II in the late 260s BC.
