The ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia was founded in pre-history but came to historical record when Aigai (modern Vergina) was established as the Macedonian capital in the mid-7th century BC. The kingdom was initially ruled by the royal Argead dynasty, which was followed by the Antipatrid and Antigonid dynasties. Home to the Ancient Macedonians, the kingdom was centered on the northeastern part of the Greek peninsula, being bordered by Epirus to the west, Paeonia to the north, Thrace to the east and Thessaly to the south.
The king of Macedonia in 356 BC was Filippos B known as Philip II. Philip II was a Greek King of the Argead Dynasty from Argos in the Peloponnese that founded Macedonia.
