Historical background


PARTHIA - PARTHIAN KINGDOM - PARTHAMASPATES

(116)

Parthamaspates claimed to be the son of Osroes I. When Trajan had taken Ctesiphon, he installed him as king. This fact is known to us by Roman coins with the legend: "REX PARTHIIS DATVS", which can be translated by (king given to the Parthians). After the departure of the Roman occupants, he was quickly driven from the throne and then disappeared from history..
