Hydarnes

[1] He was seemingly good friends with Aspathines, who invited him to join the conspiracy,[1] which included the noblemen Intaphernes, Otanes, Gobryas, Megabyzus, and the Achaemenid prince Darius, who was its leader.

[2] For his services, Hydarnes was seemingly given the Achaemenid satrapy of Armenia as a semi-hereditary fief, since his descendants governed it until the Hellenistic period.

[1] Orontes I (died 344 BC), the ancestor of the Orontid dynasty, was descended from Hydarnes.

[3] According to some Persepolis tablets, Hydarnes served as the satrap of Media under Darius.
