  Research Notes:

In AD 106 Mithridates was succeeded by Amazasp I, very likely Mithridates' brother, who took part in Trajan's war on Parthia, and died at Nisibis in AD 116, and whose verse epitaph (in Greek) in Rome runs: 'Glorious king's offspring Amazasp, brother of king Mithridates, whose fatherland is by the Caspian gates, an Iberian, son of an Iberian, is buried here: by the sacred city built by Nikator (Nisibis, today's Nusaybin in southeast Turkey). By the river Mygdonia that waters the olive trees, this companion of the leader of heroic sons, as he came to his commander for a battle with the Parthians, died before he could stain his mighty hand, alas, in enemy blood: O spear, and bow and sword blade, a foot-soldier and a horseman, as modest as a maiden.' ¹
