230–219 BC) was an Illyrian queen and the first wife of the Illyrian king Agron of the Ardiaei (r. 250–231 BC), with whom she had a son named Pinnes.
[1][2] Sometime before his death (231/230 BC), Agron divorced Triteuta and married Teuta.
Their son, crown prince Pinnes, was placed under the guardianship of step-mother Teuta (the Queen regent) until after the First Illyrian War (228 BC).
[3][2] It is believed that, at some point, Teuta abdicated, died, or was removed, and the regency for Pinnes was taken by Demetrius of Pharos.
[4][5] According to Dio Chrysostom, Demetrius of Pharos married Triteuta and became regent for Pinnes,[6] [2]after the war, thus becoming the most powerful of the Illyrian rulers in the 220s BC.
