Phila of Elimeia
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Phila (Greek: Φίλα τῆς Ἐλίμειας), sister of Derdas and Machatas of Elimeia, was the first or second wife of Philip II of Macedon. She appears to have remained childless. Arithmatic is an easy calculation to determine approximate age. By following the context of this person, she was probabvly in her early 60's when she was married. i.e. Born about 420 b.c., Married philip II in 358 B.C. = approx age 62 years. No wonder she remained childless.
