| After the Persian king Darius had suppressed
the rebellion of the Magian Gaumâta
in September 522 and went to Babylon, many tribes
in the eastern half of the empire revolted. One of the rebels was Frâda,
a nobleman from Margiana, who was defeated
by Dâdarshish,
the satrap of Bactria, on December 28,
521. |
