BIOGRAPHY: Narses, also spelled NARSEH (d. c. 302), king of the Sasanian Empire whose reign (293-302) saw the beginning of 40 years of peace with Rome.
BIOGRAPHY: Narses was the youngest son of an earlier king, Shapur I. On the death of Bahram II (293), Narses, at that time viceroy of Armenia, successfully contested the succession of Bahram's son, Bahram III. Narses later antagonized Rome by occupying the independent portion of Armenia. In the following year he suffered a severe reversal, losing his war chest and his harem. He then concluded a peace (296), by the terms of which Armenia remained under Roman suzerainty, and the steppes of northern Mesopotamia, with Singara and the hill country on the left bank of the Tigris as far as Gordyene, were also ceded to the victors. In return Narses recovered his household. By this peace, which lasted for 40 years, the Sasanians withdrew completely from the disputed districts.
