Philip II of Macedon was called "Augustus" to signify his elevated status and authority as a ruler. The term "Augustus," meaning "venerable" or "majestic," was used to convey respect and honor, often associated with divine or imperial connotations. This title helped to establish Philip's legitimacy and reinforce his power over Macedonia and its territories, particularly as he expanded his kingdom. It set a precedent for the use of similar titles by later rulers, including Roman emperors.
