Seleucus I Nicator 1st-2nd C. CE

"It is said that while he was still serving under Alexander and following him in the war against the Persians he consulted the Didymaean oracle to inquire about his return to Macedonia and that he received for answer:

    Do not hurry back to Europe;
    Asia will be much better for you.

It was said also that in Macedonia a great fire burst forth on his ancestral hearth without anybody lighting it; also that his mother saw in a dream that whatever ring she found she should give him to carry, and that he should be king at the place where he should lose the ring. She did find an iron ring with an anchor engraved on it, and he lost it near the Euphrates."

-Appian of Alexandria, The Syrian Wars: Chapter 12, Section 56
