The Carian campaign was fought in 312 BCE during the events of the Third War of the Diadochi (the Wars of the Diadochi (Ancient Greek: Πόλεμοι τῶν Διαδόχων Pólemoi tōn Diadóchōn, literally War of the Crown Princes), or Wars of Alexander's Successors, were a series of conflicts fought between the generals of Alexander the Great, known as the Diadochi (successors), over who would rule his empire following his death). During the war which lasted from 313 to 311 BCE, Antigonus Monophthalmus (one of the more successful contenders), had to put down an insurrection by Asander, one of his subordinates and his governor of Caria in western Asia-Minor.[1]
