Kamnaskires II, surnamed Nikephoros ("the Bringer of Victory") was a king of the Elymais only known from his coins.
Around 150 BC, the Seleucid empire disintegrated and at several places local governors became independent and assumed the title of "king" (basileus).
The first king in the Elymais was Kamnaskires Soter ("the Saviour"), who ruled around 147 BC.
Mithridates I then punished Elymais for aiding the Seleucids–he invaded the region once more and captured two of their major cities.
[2][3] The coins of Kamnaskires II Nikephoros are fully Hellenistic in style.
