    Note: Bacurius I King of Iberia Reign 234-249 Predecessor Vache Successor Mihrdat II Dynasty Arsacid dynasty Bakur I (Georgian: ბაკურ I, Latinized as Bacurius), of the Arsacid dynasty, was a king of Iberia (natively known as Kartli; ancient Georgia) from 234 to 249. The name Bacurius is the Latin form of the Greek Bakour (Βάκουρ), itself a variant of the Middle Iranian Pakur, derived from Old Iranian bag-puhr ('son of a god').[1][2] The name "Bakur" is the Georgian (ბაკურ) and Armenian (Բակուր) attestation of Middle Iranian Pakur.[1] He is known exclusively from the medieval Georgian chronicles which make him either 21st or 23rd in the royal list of Iberia and merely relates that Bakur was the son of Vach'e.[3]
