Mithridates or Mithradates (Greek: Μιθριδάτης or Μιθραδάτης) was a Persian noble.
His wife was the daughter of Darius III with the sister of Pharnaces, which made him the son-in-law of Darius.
[1][2] He was slain by the hand of Alexander the Great himself, at the Battle of the Granicus (modern-day Turkey) in 334 BC, when Alexander plunged his lance through Mithridates' face.
