Satenik
Armenian · mortal · arsacid historical · Recorded classification
THE EPIC IS FRANK ABOUT THE ABDUCTION. Its own line says the golden ring caused much pain to the tender maiden as he bore her off, and the record keeps that rather than rendering the scene as a courtship. The sources also note that the historical layer under the story is probably the ALAN INVASION OF THE FIRST CENTURY AD and not the second-century BCE king it is attached to — which is stated here and is part of why the era filing is escalated on Artashes's record.
