Aryenis of Lydia was, according to Herodotus, the daughter of King Alyattes of Lydia and the sister of King Croesus of Lydia.
Family[edit]Aryenis was also the Queen consort of Astyages, King of Media
and mother of Mandane of Media
and
a probable Amytis, married to her nephew Cyrus the Great.
She was also mother-in-law of Cambyses I of Anshan and maternal grandmother of Cyrus the Great.
She was given in marriage to Astyages to seal a treaty between Cyaxares of Media and Alyattes II of Lydia, following the Battle of the Eclipse.
Herodotus identified her as the mother of Mandane, but there is speculation that Mandane (the wife of Cambyses I of Anshan)
may have been born to an earlier wife of Astyages.

Mandana of Media (b. ca. 584 BCE) was a princess of Media and, later, the Queen consort of Cambyses I of Anshan and mother of Cyrus the Great,[1] ruler of the Persia's Achaemenid Empire. According to Herodotus, Mandana was born to Astyages, King of Media and son of Cyaxares the Great, and Princess Aryenis of Lydia, daughter of Alyattes II, the father of Croesus of Lydia. Shortly after her birth, Herodotus reports that Astyages had a strange dream where his daughter urinated so much that Asia would flood. He consulted the magi who interpreted the dream as a warning that Mandana's son would overthrow his rule. To forestall that outcome, Astyages betrothed Mandane to the vassal Achaemenid prince, Cambyses I of Anshan, "a man of good family and quiet habits", whom Astyages considered no threat to the Median throne. Astyages had a second dream when Mandane became pregnant where a vine grew from her womb and overtook the world. Terrified, he sent his most loyal court retainer, Harpagus, to kill the child. However, Harpagus was loath to spill royal blood and hid the child, Cyrus II (Cyrus the Great), with a shepherd named Mitradates. Years later, Cyrus would defy his grandfather, Astyages, leading to war between them; a war that Cyrus would have lost, but for Harpagus' defection on the battlefield of Pasargadae, leading to the overthrow of Astyages, as the dream had forecast. |

Ashur-uballit II (Aššur-uballiṭ II) was the last king of the Assyrian empire.
He reigned in the last capital city of Harran from 612 BC
to somewhere between 609 and 605 BC, having escaped Nineveh during the siege and capture of that city
by the Babylonian-Mede-Scythian alliance in 612 BC.
In alliance with Egypt, whose dynasty had been installed by the Assyrians,
Ashuruballit's army was able to defend Harran from the combined Babylonian-Mede attack for a brief period
following the destruction of Nineveh; however, when the Egyptian army were defeated and had to return their homeland in 610 BC,
the Babylonians and Medes eventually took Harran and sacked it in 609 BC.
Assyria again called upon its former Egyptian colony, who came to their assistance.
King Josiah of Judah allied himself with Babylon and tried to block the way of the forces of Egypt under Pharaoh Necho II.
Josiah was defeated and killed at Meggido.

Vishtaspa (fl. 550 BC), known under his Hellenized name Hystaspes (Ὑστάσπης), was a Persian satrap of Bactria and Persis,
and the father of Darius I of Persia.
The son of Arsames, Hystaspes was a member of the Persian royal house of the Achaemenids.
He was satrap of Persis under Cambyses, and probably under Cyrus the Great also.
He accompanied Cyrus on his expedition against the Massagetae. But he was sent back to Persis, to keep watch over his eldest son Darius,
whom Cyrus, in consequence of a dream, suspected of considering treason.
Besides Darius, Hystaspes had two sons, Artabanus and Artanes.[1] Ammianus Marcellinus[2] makes him a chief of the Magians,
and tells a story of his studying in India under the Brahmins. His name occurs in the inscriptions at Persepolis.[3]

After a month and a half Xerxes II was murdered by his brother Secydianus or Sogdianus (the form of the name is uncertain).
His illegitimate brother, Ochus, satrap of Hyrcania, rebelled against Sogdianus,

Ochus adopted the name Darius (Greek sources often call him DariusNothos, "Bastard").
Neither the names Xerxes II nor Sogdianus occur in the dates of the numerous Babylonian tablets from Nippur;
here effectively the reign of Darius II follows immediately after that of Artaxerxes I.

Neither the names Xerxes II nor Sogdianus occur in the dates of the numerous Babylonian tablets from Nippur;

The Greek version (Septuagint) of the Book of Esther refers to him as Artaxerxes, and the historian Josephus relates
that this was the name by which he was known to the Greeks.
Xerxes the Great (519–465 BC), was the fourth of the kings of Achaemenid Empire.
Xerxes I is more than likely the Persian king identified as Ahasuerus in the biblical book of Esther.
By the 600s BC, the Persians (Parsa)[12] had settled in the southwest Iranian plateau, bounded on the west by the Tigris River and on the south by the Persian Gulf; this region came to be their heartland.[13] It was from this region that Cyrus the Great would advance to defeat the Kingdom of Media, the Kingdom of Lydia, and the Babylonian Empire, to form the Achaemenid Empire.
Alexander, an avid admirer of Cyrus the Great,[16] would eventually cause the collapse of the empire and its disintegration around 330 BC into what later became the Ptolemaic Kingdom and Seleucid Empire, in addition to other minor territories which gained independence at that time. The Persian culture of the central plateau, however, continued to thrive and eventually reclaimed power by the 2nd century BC.[13]
