Ardabur (consul 427)

Ardabur (Greek: Ἀρδαβούρ) served as magister militum in the East Roman army in the 420s, under Theodosius II.

[2] During the Roman-Persian War of 421–422, he ravaged Arzanene and besieged Nisibis.

[1] After the war ended, Ardabur was promoted to the rank of magister militum praesentalis.

[1] In 424, Ardabur and his son Aspar were sent on a campaign to Italy to overthrow the usurper Joannes.

[1] Ardabur should be distinguished from his grandson of the same name, who was consul twenty years later.
