Encyclopedia > Tiridates I

At least two rulers have been entitled Tiridates I. They include:

  • Tiridates I of Parthia, the brother of Arsaces I of Parthia. In some histories he is described as ruling Parthia from 248 to 211 BC, but it is now believed that Arsaces was the ruler during this time. [1] (http://www.parthia.com/arsaces1.htm)
  • Tiridates I of Armenia (or Trdat I), who ruled Armenia approximately from 53 to 60 AD.

Tiridates I may also refer to Tiridates II of Armenia (Trdat II).

Tiridates fled to Syria, where Augustus allowed him to stay, but refused to support him.
During the next years Tiridates invaded Parthia again; some coins dated from March and May, 26 BC, with the name of a king "Arsaces Phioromaios," belong to him; on the reverse they show the king seated on the throne, with Tyche stretching out a palm branch towards him.
