Mithradates II of Parthia (king of Parthia, 124-91 BCE)

From SILVER


Mithridates II was king of the Parthian Empire from 124 to 91 BC. He was known as "Mithridates the Great" in antiquity. He was the first Arsacid monarch to regularly use the title "King of Kings", thus stressing the association of the ruling Parthian dynasty with the Persian Achaemenid Empire.
