A unified Macedonian state was eventually established by King Amyntas III ( c. 393 – 370 BC ), though it still retained strong contrasts between the cattle-rich coastal plain and the fierce isolated tribal hinterland, allied to the king by marriage ties.

Amyntas had three sons ; the first two, Alexander II and Perdiccas III reigned only briefly.

The most common way to exploit these different sources of income was by leasing: the Pseudo-Aristotle reports in the Oeconomica that Amyntas III ( or maybe Philip II ) doubled the kingdom's port revenues with the help of Callistratus, who had taken refuge in Macedon, bringing them from 20 to 40 talents per year.

Philip was the youngest son of the king Amyntas III and Eurydice I.

Originally appointed regent for his infant nephew Amyntas IV, who was the son of Perdiccas III, Philip managed to take the kingdom for himself that same year.

Alexander II ( Greek Ἀλέξανδρος Β ΄) was king of Macedon in 371 – 369 BC, following the death of his father Amyntas III.

Of his portrait-statues, the most celebrated were those of Philip, Alexander, Amyntas III, Olympias, and Eurydice I, which were made of ivory and gold, and were placed in the Philippeion a circular building in the Altis at Olympia, erected by Philip II of Macedon in celebration of his victory at Battle of Chaeronea ( 338 BC ).

Eventually in 370 / 369 BC, Amyntas III died, and his eldest son, Alexander II succeeded him.
