Apodakos was a king of Characene,[1][2] a kingdom presumably vassal of the Parthian Empire.
In 124 BC, Hyspaosines, the first king of Characene died.
After his death, his widow Thalassia tried to install their son on the throne.
However, the events surrounding the succession are known from Babylonian cuneiform texts and the name of the son is not mentioned.
Whether Apodakos was the son of Hyspaosines remains undetermined, however, he has certain historicity from about 14 years later, as king of the small kingdom.
