  1. Tiridates III of Parthia

    Tiridates III of Parthia ruled the Parthia Parthian Empire briefly in 35 36 . He was the grandson of Phraates IV of Parthia Phraates IV . He was sent to Rome as a hostage and was educated there. In about 36 , when the Parthia n nobility rebelled against Artabanus II of Parthia Artabanus II , they applied to the Roman emperor Tiberius for a king of the race of Phraates. Tiberius sent Tiridates to the east, and ordered Lucius Vitellius the father of the emperor Vitellius to restore the Roman authority there. By very dexterous military and diplomatic operations Vitellius succeeded completely. Artabanus was deserted by his followers and fled. However, Tiridates, who was proclaimed king, could not maintain himself, because he appeared to be a vassal of the Romans. Artabanus soon returned from Hyrcania with a strong army of Scythian Dahan people Dahan auxiliaries, and was again acknowledged by the Parthians. Tiridates left Seleucia on the Tigris and fled to Syria . The Roman historian Tacitus writes that the Parthian court official Abdagaeses, who exerted political control over Tiridates, spared Tiridates from danger by preventing him from visiting the Parthian tribes. ref name bunson 1 Bunson, 1. ref This policy kept the distrustful clans from uniting against Tiridates in the meantime ...

  1. Artabanus of Persia

    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.

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

History In 138 BCE Rhodogune married Seleucid king Demetrius II of Syria Demetrius II Nicator ruled 146 139 BCE, 129 126 BCE .
