42: King of Persia [Ref: Mommaerts chart-Arsakunik, Settipani LGA p94]

Tacite relates that upon the death of Artabanos II King of Persia reigned his son Gotarzes. He was hunted by his brother Vardanes, before the agreement with him to leave the throne, reigned for his part on the Dahes and the Hyrcaniens. After the death of Vardanes, Gotarzes reigned of tyranny, which led the Persian nobility to put forth Mithridates, son of Vonones I, descendant of the elder branch of Arsacides. But Gotarzes triumphed by tgreachery. When Gotarzes died of disease in 51, the King of Medes Vonones succeeded him; he died leaving the crown to his son Vologaises [Ref: Settipani LGA p84]
