Tigranes VI

-

Tigranes VI (orm: Տիգրան) (born 30th, after 63th) - King of Greater Armenia in 60-63, great-grandson of Herod the Great.

He was the son of Alexander II, grandson of Herod the Great; Tigranes's nephew V. Through his grandmother, Glafira was the great-granddaughter of Archelaus, the king of Cappadocia.

For a long time he stayed in Rome as a royal hostage, which influenced the development of Tigranes in the far-reaching submission that the Roman historian Tacitus had compared to the slave's submission.

In 60 years, the will of Emperor Nero became King of Greater Armenia. The nomination was made possible by the victory of Gnejusz Domicjusz Korbulon over the party's claimant Tiridates I. Tigranes VI received a garrison of a thousand legionaries, three auxiliar cohorts and two divisions.

In 61, Adiabene invaded the neighboring kingdom, ruled by Monobazes II, the vassal king of the Parthians. The Partisans considered it a violation of peace conditions and attacked Armenia. The ruler of Wologazes I subdued Tigranocerta, successfully defended by Tigranes. Tigranes was sent to help the Romans in the winter of 61/62 in Cappadocia.

In 62, the Roman commander Caesar Petus pledged that Armenia would be returned to Tiridates, who in 63 years became governor, and in 66 was approved by the emperor Nero.

Further fate of Tigranes VI is unknown. He had a son, Alexander IV, and probably a daughter Julia, known from the inscriptions of Faleria. Bibliography
