Vahan Mamikonean Marzban of Armenia
(485-505), nephew of Sparapet Vardan Mamikonean. He headed the new uprising
against Persia. His obstinacy and military victories compelled the Persian
king Vagharsh accepting the freedom of worship in Armenia. According
to Sebeos, Vahan restored the peace in the country and reconstructed
many of the churches that Persians had destroyed in the cities of Dvin
and Vagharshapat. www.ArmenianHistory.info |
