Abdsamiya (Hatran Aramaic: 𐣯𐣡𐣣𐣮𐣬𐣩𐣠) was a king of Hatra,[1] an ancient city and kingdom in ancient Mesopotamia.
Abdsamiya is known from eight inscriptions found at Hatra.
One of them reports the building of a porticus for the king and is dated to year 504 of the Seleucid era (AD 192/93).
Another inscription appears on a statue and is dated to AD 201/202.
Abdsamiya is most likely also mentioned by Herodian (3.1.3),[2] where he is named as Barsemias,[1] there he is reported to have supported Pescennius Niger against Septimius Severus in AD 192.
