Shapur I or also known as Shapur I the Great is the second Sassanid King of the Second Persian Empire.

The dates of his reign are commonly given as 240/42 - 270/72, but it is likely that he also reigned as co-regent (together with his father) prior to his father's death in 242 (more probably than 240).
