The Antipatrid dynasty (/ænˈtɪpətrɪd/; Greek: Ἀντιπατρίδαι) was a Dorian Greek dynasty[1] of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon founded by Cassander, the son of Antipater, who declared himself King of Macedon in 302 BC. This dynasty did not last long; in 294 BC it was swiftly overthrown by the Antigonid dynasty.
Members of the Antipatrid dynasty:
- Antipater, regent, not king
 - Cassander (302–297 BC)
 - Philip IV of Macedon (297 BC)
 - Alexander V of Macedon (297–294 BC)
 - Antipater I (296–294 BC)
 - Antipater II Etesias (279 BC)
