The '''Second Syrian War''' was again fought between [[Antiochus I]] and [[Ptolemy II]] when Antiochus invaded [[Syria]], this time in 260 B.C. [[Antigonus]], [[Macedonian]] ally of Antiochus, this time wasn't busy fighting a war that Ptolemy had instigated to keep him occupied, and so the forces of Ptolemy II were defeated by Antigonus in a naval battle off Cos in 258 B.C. Ptolemy made peace in 255 B.C.
