  Vardanduxt[1] was an Armenian noblewoman, whom through marriage became a Queen consort who lived in the 4th century. She is known as the wife of Arsaces III (Arshak III)[2] who was the last serving Roman Client King of Arsacid Armenia. Arsaces III reigned from 378 until his death in 387.
  
  Vardanduxt was the daughter of the great Sparapet (chief general) Manuel Mamikonian[3][4] of the pro-Roman, powerful and wealthy Mamikonian family by an unnamed mother. She was born and raised in Armenia.
  
  The prior Roman Client Armenian King Papas (Pap) was assassinated in 374. As Arsaces III and his younger brother, Vologases were both too young to rule and succeed their father, the Roman emperor Valens had sent their paternal first cousin Varasdates (Varazdat) to occupy the Armenian throne. Their cousin who was a young man highly reputed for his mental and physical gifts had lived in Rome for an unknown period of time. Varasdates began to rule under the regency of Musel Mamikonian.
  
  In 378 with the failed reign of Varasdates and the murder of his regent Musel Mamikonian who was Vardanduxt’s paternal uncle, her father, Manuel who was Musel’s brother[5], filled his late brother’s position of Sparapet. Manuel being so mad at the Armenian King, with a military force drove out Varasdates from Armenia[6] back to Rome. Manuel raised Arsaces III and his brother Vologases to the throne as co-kings of Armenia, under the nominal regency of their mother Zarmandukht.[7]
  
  To end the political anarchy in the country as Manuel being now the powerful regent-in-charge of Armenia, Manuel married Arsaces III to Vardanduxt and he married Vologases to the daughter of Sahak from the Bagratuni Dynasty.[8] Through marriage, Vardanduxt became a relation to the ruling Arsacid dynasty of Armenia and a powerful, influential woman in Armenian society. Not much is known on her relationship with Arsaces III and she bore him no children.
  
  The Mamikonian government brought peace, stability to Armenia in which Manuel guided the country wisely.[9] Manuel treated Arsaces III, Vologases and Zarmandukht with honor.[10] He raised Arsaces III and Vologases[11] and Manuel nurtured them as if they were his own children.[12]
  
  In 386, Vologases died without leaving an heir and sometime later, Manuel died. Vardanduxt and Arsaces III were at Manuel’s bedside as he laid sick and dying.[13] After this moment, no more is known on Vardanduxt. From 386 until 387, Arsaces III became the sole-ruler of Armenia, which occurred at this time the Sassanid invasions from Persia of Armenia. From this invasion, the authority of Arsaces III became lessened as he only maintained Western Armenia[14], in which his small kingdom was of a line from Erzurum to Mush. Sometime in 387 Arsaces III died, without leaving an heir. Western Armenia was annexed and became a province of the Byzantine Empire. Eastern Armenia was annexed by the Sassanid Empire and the remaining ruling Arsacid monarchs in Eastern Armenia became Client Kings of Armenia under Sassanid rule.
