Perhaps the following two links are useful:
[url:3q01chrz]http://www.livius.org/se-sg/seleucids/seleucid_kings.html[/url]
[url:3q01chrz]http://www.livius.org/pan-paz/parthia/kings.html[/url]
The Seleucid king list is up-to-date and contains information from recently published cuneiform sources; the Parthian list, which is based on numismatic evidence, is up-to-date for the first eighteen kings; the second half of this list will probably be updated in the course of 2006.

Well, if they wanted a Hollywood star to play Seleucid I, Michael Douglas would probably fit the bill......

That bust is totally amazing you can clearly see the eyebrows, in fact I would say it's a facial cast....
What would you say the green is around the eyes, oxidised copper or malachite paint?

Seleucus I Nicator: the beginning of reign - "1(?) June 311". Why this date? He became a king only after Antigonus and Demetrius, and they became kings in 306BC.

The table does not show date of kingship, but the beginning of his rule as stratêgos, which can be deduced from the Diadochi Chronicle (online at [url:32au5cd3]http://www.livius.org/cg-cm/chronicles/bchp-diadochi/diadochi_01.html[/url]).. The relevant lines are on the reverse ([url:32au5cd3]http://www.livius.org/cg-cm/chronicles/bchp-diadochi/diadochi_03.html[/url], 3'-4'. The context of this tablet is the Babylonian War ([url:32au5cd3]http://www.livius.org/di-dn/diadochi/war06.html[/url]).
I hope this helps.

By the way, Appian in "Syrian wars" (63) says that "Seleucus died at the age of seventy-three, having reigned forty-two years."

That's counting regnal according to the official fiction that Seleucus succeeded Alexander in 323.

Clemens of Alexandria also says that "Ptolemy, son of Lagos, ruled 40 years" (Strom. I, 128, 2).
I think "The list of kings found in Uruk" (ANET3 566) is more interesting: it gives 31 years for Seleucus` reign. And in this case you`re right.
