Chosroes III, the small or Khosrov III godag, son of Tiridates III, was a member of the Arsacid dynasty and the king of Armenia between 330 and 339. He was a short man, hence the name with which he is known. He founded the city of Dvin, which later became the capital of Armenia.
During his reign, two generals, Vatche Mamikonian and Vahan Amatuni, distinguished themselves by their battle value, which often went to help the king. During these years, the feeling in favor of the Sassanians and the opposition towards Mamikonian increased in Armenia, as well as the hostility toward Rome. The pro-Sassanid groups gained popularity to the point of achieving the murder of Catholicos Arisdaches I, son of Gregory the Illuminator.
Shapur II, Sassanid king of the Persians, invaded Armenia twice and managed to gain some territory. Vatche Mamikonian died in these combats and later was named saint by the Armenian Apostolic Church for his sacrifice. Cosroes III died in the year 339. Notes
