The Seleucid Civil War of 315, also known as the Civil war of 627 SE and in literary terms the War between Cynegus and Palleuceia, was a civil war that was fought between two factions led by two royals of the Seleucid Dynasty, Seleucus XV Cynegus and Terpsichore II Palleuceia. It ended with Palleuceia rising as the victor and ascending as the succeeding monarch of the Seleucid Empire and the execution of Cynegus and the exile of his family in Scythianna.
