Tiridates , or Teridates is a Persian name, given by Arrian in his Parthica to the brother of ArsacesI of ParthiaArsacesI , the founder of the Parthia n kingdom, whom he is said to have succeeded in about 246 BC. But Arrian s account seems to be quite unhistorical and modern historians believe that Arsaces continued to rule Parthia until 211 BC. In Arrian s account, Tiridates maintained himself for a short time in Parthia, during the dissolution of the Seleucid empire by the attacks of Ptolemy III of Egypt Ptolemy III in 246 BC and the following years. Tiridates was defeated and expelled by Seleucus II Callinicus Seleucus II in about 238 BC. But when Seleucus was forced, by the rebellion of his brother, Antiochus Hierax , to return to the west, Tiridates came back and defeated the Macedon ians. Tiridates adopted the name of his brother Arsaces, and after him all the other Parthian kings. s start s hou Arsacid Empire Arsacid dynasty Unknown 211 BC s bef before ArsacesI of ParthiaArsacesI s ttl title List of kings of Persia Great King Shah of Parthia years c. 246 BC 211 BC s aft after Arsaces II of ParthiaArsaces II end See also Tiridates II of Parthia is called Tiridates I in accounts that miss out the earlier Tiridates.

Reverse shows a seated archer holding a bow, surrounded by meaningless Greek like letterforms. Parthamaspates , Roman Empire Roman client king of Parthian Empire Parthia and later of Osroene , was the son of the Parthian emperor Osroes I of Parthia Osroes I . After spending much of his life in Roman exile , he accompanied the Roman Emperor Trajan on the latter s campaign to conquer Parthia. Trajan originally planned to annex Parthia as part of the Roman Empire , but ultimately decided instead to place Parthamaspates on his father s throne as a Roman client, doing so in 116 . Following Roman withdrawal from the area, Osroes easily defeated Parthamaspates and reclaimed the Parthian throne. After his defeat in Parthia, Parthamaspates again fled to the Romans who then, as a consolation, granted him the co rule of Osroene, a small Roman client state between Asia Minor and Syria . He was king of Osroene together with Yalur of Osroene Yalur from 118 to 122 , and afterwards sole ruler to 123 . s start s hou Arsacid Empire Arsacid dynasty s bef before Osroes I of Parthia Osroes I s ttl title List of kings of Persia Great King Shah of Parthia years 116 117 s aft after Osroes I of Parthia Osroes I s bef before None interregnum s ttl title King of Osroene years 118 123 with Yalur of Osroene Yalur to 122 s aft after Ma nu VII of Osroene Ma nu VII end Category Parthian kings Category 2nd century monarchs in the Middle East Category Rulers of Osroene ca Partamaspades de P rtia es Partamaspates fr Parthamaspat s nl Parthamaspates ja no Parthamaspates av Parthia sh Partamaspat od Partije ... more details
Unreferenced date February 2009 Rhodogune was the daughter of Mithridates I of Parthia Mithridates I king of Parthia , c. 171 BCE 138 BCE , and sister of Phraates II ruled 138 BCE 127 BCE . History In 138 BCE Rhodogune married Seleucid king Demetrius II of Syria Demetrius II Nicator ruled 146 139 BCE, 129 126 BCE . After bearing several children with him, she was presumably abandoned in 131 BCE when Demetrius, after numerous failed attempts to escape from Parthia, was dispatched back to Antioch during the invasion of Parthia by Demetrius brother, Antiochus VII Sidetes . During their marriage, she had been temporarily a hostage in the Parthian court after an ill fated campaign. Polyaenus http www.attalus.org translate polyaenus8B.html 27.1 8.27 tells us that Rhodogune, informed of a revolt while preparing for a bath, vowed not to bathe or brush her hair until the revolt was neutralised. She immediately went to battle, riding out to the head of her army. She successfully directed the battle, and was depicted thereafter with long, disheveled hair because of her adherence to her vow.
