The Mamikonids were "until the ninth century possibly the greatest princely dynasty" in Armenia. They appeared for the first time in history in the first century B.C. and could trace their ancestry back to Artavasde I, Grand Constable of Armenia in 314. Several branches of the family became Byzantinized, among whom were the Mosele-Krinite, possibly the "Macedonians" and the family of St. Theodora, the wife of the Emperor Theophilos (842-56). By the year 1000 the Mamikonids had lost most of their principalities, mainly to the Bagratids, and retained only south western Taraun (with Arsamosata) and Sasun. [Ref: Brook ByzantineAnc p20]

774: revolted against the Arabs, and exiled to Byzance, where he became a strategist on the anatolique topic in 778 [Ref: Settipani LGA p34]

778: strategist of the anatolique, and sons in Byzantine army [Ref: Settipani LGA p36]

origin of the uprising in 775 seems to have been Artavand, but he emigrated before the hostilities started [Ref: Settipani LGA p52]
