Years: 6 - 6

Orodes III, raised to the throne of the Parthian Empire around CE 4 by the magnates after the death of Phraates V of Parthia, is killed after a short reign "on account of his extreme cruelty" (Josephus).

After the assassination of Orodes III in about the year CE 6, the Parthians apply to Augustus for a new King from the house of Arsaces.

Augustus sends them Phraates V's brother Vonones I, the eldest son of Phraates IV.
