Nicolaus (Greek: Nικoλαoς, Nikolaos) was an Aetolian, and a general of Ptolemy IV Philopator (221–204 BC), king of Egypt. In 219 BC he led a siege of Ptolemais, which was held by the traitor Theodotus, who had revolted from Ptolemy to Antiochus III the Great (223–187 BC). Nicolaus, however, abandoned the siege on the approach of the Seleucid king. In the same year he did much towards baffling the attempt of Antiochus on Dora in Phoenicia, by sending constant succours to the besieged. In 218 BC he was invested by Ptolemy with the supreme command in Coele-Syria, an appointment fully warranted, according to Polybius, by his military experience and bravery. He was, however, dislodged by Antiochus and his generals from a strong position which he had taken up between the range of Mount Lebanon a

  • Nicolau d'Etòlia (en llatí Nicolaus, en grec antic Νικόλαος "Nikólaos") fou un general etoli al servei de Ptolemeu IV Filopàtor, rei d'Egipte. L'any 218 aC assetjava Ptolemais que estava en poder del traïdor Teodot, revoltat contra Ptolemeu en favor d'Antíoc III el Gran, però es va haver de retirar quan el rei selèucida s'acostava. El mateix any va fer fracassar a Antíoc en el seu atac a Dura o Dora a Fenícia enviant constantment ajut als assetjats. El 217 aC Ptolemeu li va donar el comandament suprem a Celesíria, un nomenament justificat, segons Polibi, pel seu valor i habilitat militar. Va ser expulsat per Antíoc d'una posició clau entre el Mont Líban i la mar propera a la ciutat de Porphyreon, i va haver de fugir cap a Sidó. Sembla que després d'això, potser per temor al càstig del rei, va desertar al camp selèucida, ja que el seu nom apareix entre els generals selèucides en la campanya d'Hircània el 209 aC. (ca)
  • Nicolás (en griego antiguo, Nικoλαoς) era un general etolio de Ptolomeo IV (221–204 a. C.), rey de Egipto. En 219 a. C., dirigió el asedio de Ptolemaida, la cual estuvo defendida por el traidor Teodoto de Etolia, quien se había pasado de Ptolomeo a Antíoco III el Grande (223–187 a. C.). Nicolás, sin embargo abandonó el asedio ante la proximidad del rey seléucida. En el mismo año, de forma desconcertante envió socorros a los sitiados en el intento de Antíoco de tomar Tel Dor, en Fenicia. En 218 a. C., fue investido por Ptolomeo con el mando supremo de Celesiria, un nombramiento plenamente justificado, según Polibio, por su experiencia militar y valentía. Fue, sin embargo, desalojado por Antíoco y sus generales de una posición fuerte que había tomado entre la Líbano y el mar cerca la ciudad de Porfireo, y se vio obligado a buscar refugio en Sidón. Tal vez pueda conjeturarse que después de esto desertó del ejército de Antíoco, pues, encontramos el nombre de Nicolás de Etolia mencionado entre los generales del rey sirio en su campaña en Hircania, en 209 a. C.​ (es)

He was, however, dislodged by Antiochus and his generals from a strong position which he had taken up between the range of Mount Lebanon and the sea near the town of Porphyreon, and was obliged to seek safety in a precipitate flight towards Sidon. It may be conjectured that after this he deserted to Antiochus: at least, we find the name of Nicolaus of Aetolia mentioned among the generals of the Syrian king during the Battle of Mount Labus 209 BC.
