Peroz I
In 465, Adhur Gushnasp was appointed by the Sasanian emperor Peroz I (r. 459–484) as the "marzban" of Armenia, replacing Adhur Hormizd. In 475, the Mamikonian princess Shushanik, was murdered by her husband Prince Varsken, a recent convert to Zoroastrianism, because she refused to convert and wanted to stay Christian. Varsken was then executed by Vakhtang I, king of Iberia.
