Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ARN-AUD
ARSES , Persian king, youngest son of Artaxerxes III., was raised to the throne in 338 B.C. by Bagoas (q.v.), who had
murdered his father and all his
brothers
 . But when the
young
  king tried to make himself independent, Bagoas killed him too, with all his children, in the third year of his reign (336) (Diod. 17.5; Strabo 15. 736; Trogus, Prol. x., Alexander's despatch to Darius III.; Arrian ii. 14. 5, and the chronographers). In Plutarch, De fort. Alex. ii. 3. 5, he is called Oarses; in Johannes Antioch. p. 38, Arsamos; in the canon of
Ptolemy
 , Aroges (by Elias of
Nisibis
 , Piruz); in a chronological tablet from Babylon (Brit. Mus. Sp. ii. 71, Zeitschrift fiir Assyriologie, viii. 176, x. 64) he is abbreviated into Ar. See PERSIA: Ancient History. (ED. M.)
