Orontid Dynasty

The Orontid Dynasty (also known by their native name, Yervanduni ((アルメニア語:Երվանդունիներ)), was a hereditary Armenian dynasty and the rulers of the successor state to the Iron Age kingdom of Urartu (Ararat).〔 Tiratsyan, Gevorg. ''«Երվանդունիներ»'' (Yerevanduniner). Armenian Soviet Encyclopedia. vol. iii. Yerevan: Armenian Academy of Sciences, 1977, p. 640.〕〔Krause, Todd B. and John A.C. Greppin, and Jonathan Slocum. "(The Yervanduni Dynasty )." The A. Richard Diebold Center for Indo-European Language and Culture at the University of Texas. Jan. 22, 2009.〕 The Orontids established their supremacy over Armenia around the time of the Scythian and Median invasion in the 6th century BC.
Members of the Orontid dynasty ruled Armenia intermittently during the period spanning the 6th century BC to at least the 2nd century BC, first as client kings or satraps of the Median and Achaemenid empires who established an independent kingdom after the collapse of the Achaemenid empire, and later as kings of Sophene and Commagene who eventually succumbed to the Roman Empire.
==Historical background==

The name Orontes is the Hellenized form of a masculine name of Iranian origin; Երուանդ ''Eruand'' in Old Armenian. The name is only attested in Greek (Gr.:Ὀρόντης). Its Avestan connection is ''Auruuant'' (brave, hero) and Middle Persian ''Arwand'' (Modern Persian اروند Arvand). Some have suggested a continuity with the Hittite name Arnuwanda. Various Greek transcriptions of the name in Classical sources are spelled as Orontes, Aruandes or Ardoates. The presence of this dynasty is attested from at least 400 BC, and it can be shown to have ruled originally from Armavir and subsequently Yervandashat. The precise date of the foundation of the Orontid Dynasty is debated by scholars to this day but there is a consensus that it occurred after the destruction of Urartu by the Scythians and the Medes around 612 BC.
