Hidrieus (or Idrieus) was the second son of Hekatomnos. He succeeded to the throne of Caria on the death of his sister Artemisia II, sister-wife of Maussollos, in 351 BC. Shortly after his accession he was required by the Persian king, Artaxerxes III Ochus, to provide arms and troops for the capture of Cyprus, a request with which he readily complied. He equipped a fleet of 40 triremes and assembled an army of 8000 mercenary troops. These were despatched for use against Cyprus under the command of Evagoras and the Athenian general Phocion. This is the only recorded event preserved from his reign. However it can be inferred from Isocrates that by 346 BC the friendly relations between Hidrieus and the Persian king had not continued and there appears to have been open hostility between the two. But the hostility of Persia did not interfere with Caria′s prosperity, for in the same passage by Isocrates, Hidrieus is described as one of the most wealthy and powerful of the princes of Asia and Demosthenes advises that Hidrieus had added the important islands of Chios, Kos, and Rhodes to his hereditary dominions. That Hidrieus was an active builder is attested in Halikarnassos, as it is he who must have finished the Mausoleum, the tomb of his brother Maussollos, begun by their sister, Mausollos′ wife, and his own immediate predecessor, Artemisia II, which had been left unfinished at her death and at Labraunda, where, continuing the enrichment in the Hellenistic style undertaken there earlier by Mausollos, he restored the temple of Zeus, added the southern and eastern entrances, and built the ′Doric house′. Hidrieus may have been engaged in clandestine diplomatic negotiations with Philip II of Macedonia against Persia. Either way, by 344/3 BC, the rebellion in Cyprus was crushed and Hidrieus died of a disease in 344 BC, after a reign of seven years, leaving in his will the sovereign power over Caria to his sister Ada, to whom he had been married.
