Sogdianus Persian , died 423 BC, king of Persia 424 423 BC . He was an obscure historical figure known primarily from the writings of Ctesias . He was reportedly an illegitimate son of Artaxerxes I by his concubine Alogyne of Babylon . The last inscription mentioning Artaxerxes I being alive can be dated to December 24, 424 BC. His death resulted in at least three of his sons proclaiming themselves Kings. The first was Xerxes II , who was reportedly his only legitimate son by Queen consort Queen Damaspia and was formerly Crown Prince . He was apparently only recognized in Achaemenid Empire Persia . The second was Sogdianus himself, possibly recognized in Elam . The third was Ochus , son of Artaxerxes I by his concubine Cosmartidene of Babylon and satrap of Hyrcania . Ochus was also married to their common half sister Parysatis , daughter of Artaxerxes I and his concubine Andia of Babylon . The first inscription of Ochus as Darius II of Persia Darius II can be dated to January 10, 423 BC. He seems to have been recognized by Medes , Babylonia and Egypt .

No footnotes date May 2009 Artabanus the Hyrcanian was a Persia n political figure during the Achaemenid Dynasty who was reportedly Regent of Persia for a few months 465 BC 464 BC . Artabanus probably originated from the province of Hyrcania and reportedly served as the chief official of Xerxes I . He is considered to have served either as his vizier or as his head bodyguard . According to Aristotle , Artabanus was responsible for the death of Crown Prince Darius. He then became afraid that Xerxes would seek revenge and proceeded to assassination assassinate the King. On the other hand Junianus Justinus reported that Artabanus had personal ambitions for the throne. He first secretly murdered Xerxes and then accused Darius of parricide , resulting in his execution. The order of events remain uncertain but Xerxes and Darius certainly left the throne vacant. Artabanus course of action is also uncertain. Some accounts have him usurping the throne for himself. Others consider him to have named young Artaxerxes I as King and to have acted as Regent and power behind the throne . This state of affairs would not last more than a few months. Artaxerxes reportedly slew him with his own sword, either in battle or by surprise. Artabanus is occasionally listed among the Kings of the Achaemenid dynasty though he was not related to them. As Artaxerxes is believed to be the inspiration for King Ahasuerus in the story of Purim , Artabanus may have been the inspiration for Haman in the same story.
