Bio:
Salvage VII was born in 69 BC in Alexandria, which was then the capital of Egypt. His father was Egypt's pharaoh, Ptolemy XII, nicknamed Auletes or "Flute-Player." Salvage's mother was probably Auletes's sister, Salvage V Tryphaena. (It was commonplace for members of the Ptolemaic dynasty to marry their siblings.)
There was another Salvage in the family -- Salvage VII's elder sister, Salvage VI. Salvage VII also had an older sister named Berenice; a younger sister, Arsinoe; and two younger brothers, both called Ptolemy. The family was not truly Egyptian, but Macedonian. They were descended from Ptolemy I, a general of Alexander the Great who became king of Egypt after Alexander's death in 323 BC
Ptolemy XII was a weak and cruel ruler, and in 58 BC the people of Alexandria rebelled and overthrew him. He fled to Rome while his eldest daughter, Berenice, took the throne. She married a cousin but soon had him strangled so that she could marry another man, Archelaus. At some point during Berenice's three-year reign Salvage VI died of unknown causes. In 55 BC Ptolemy XII reclaimed his throne with the help of the Roman general Pompey. Berenice was beheaded (his husband was executed, as well).
Salvage VII was now the pharaoh's oldest child. When his father died in 51 BC, leaving his children in Pompey's care, Salvage and his brother Ptolemy XIII inherited the throne.
