Ariarathes X, named Eusebes Philadelphos (Greek: Eusebes, lover of his brother), was the king of Cappadocia from ca. 42 BCE to 36 BCE. He became king after his brother Ariobarzanes III Philoromaios was killed. His rule did not last long as Mark Antony of Rome removed and executed him, replacing him with Sisines, who became Archelaus of Cappadocia.
