Anzaze

Anzaze was a queen of the Elymais (a Parthian vassal kingdom in what is now Iran). She appears on coins together with king Kamnaskires III (about 82/81 BC to 75. BC following dates on the coins). They perhaps ruled together as on the coins she is called βασιλίσσης (the Genitive case of queen - βασίλισσα [basílissa]). Furthermore it was not common on Ancient coins that king and queens appear together, again supporting her special status.

coin: Kamnaskires and Anzaze

gollark: Though I must say it's pretty boring. I mean, it's basically just a magic energy liquod.

gollark: ... but NuclearCraft uses it.

gollark: NuclearCraft and no other redstone-flux-using mods? Weird.

gollark: I'm kind of interested in this server now, especially if there are drone swarms. I've never seen a good drone swarm before, because SC and whatnot don't really allow them to work because claims.
