	In 48 BCE, the [[Rome\|Roman]] general [[Julius Caesar]] arrived in [[Alexandria]] and decided to arbitrate the rival claims of Ptolemy and Cleopatra to the Egyptian throne. Ptolemy's advisor Pothinus ordered the general Achillas to march on Alexandria with 20,000 men to stop Caesar, who soon allied himself with Cleopatra.

	On Arsinoë's orders, Achillas was executed, and Ganymedes took command of his forces. He proved a capable tactician, supposedly being responsible for the decision to capture Caesar's fleet and trapping him inside the palace. He also had his men take control of the canals of Alexandria, isolating their own water supply before pouring salt water into the canals and cisterns leading to Caesar's camp. Caesar countered this move by ordering the construction of wells.<ref name="DT"/>		On Arsinoë's orders, Achillas was executed, and Ganymedes took command of his forces.
