By place
Sicily
- The Mamertini, a body of Campanian mercenaries who had been employed by Agathocles, the former tyrant of Syracuse, capture the stronghold of Messana (Messina, in north-eastern Sicily), from which they harass the Syracusans. The Syracusan military leader, Hieron, defeats them in a pitched battle at the Longanus River near Mylae, but Carthaginian forces intervene to prevent him from capturing Messana. His grateful countrymen then choose Hieron as their king and tyrant, to be known as Hieron II.
Births
- Attalus I Soter, ruler of Pergamon, from 241 BC to 197 BC. He was the first of the Attalid dynasty to assume the title of king. (d. 197 BC)
