His life
His father Teispes had previously divided the territory for his two sons. While Cyrus was I. Anshan, Ariaramna I. Parsumasch was assigned. Of the original 12 tribes under Teispes the area of Ariaramna I still comprised 10 strains.
After the conquest by the Median king Cyaxares II Ariaramna I was not willing to act as a vassal king. He was therefore relieved of Cyaxares II of his office. Cyrus I passed in this context its former territory to manage.
On Ariaramna his son Arschama I succeeded as King of Persis region
