Apries

Egyptian king, son of Psamtik II and fourth king (c. 588-569 BC) of the 26th dynasty. He occupied Phoenicia but failed to save Jerusalem when it was besieged by Babylonians. His army, sent against the Greeks of Cyrene, was defeated, and this circumstance caused a nationalist revolt under Amasis, who was asked to become king. Apries was defeated and slain.
