Mihransitad

Mihransitad is first mentioned around 570, when, after king Khosrow's peace treaty with the Turks, he was sent to estimate the quality of the daughter of the Turkic Khan Istämi.

According to some sources, Hormizd IV, the successor of Khosrow, was the son of the Turkic princess.

[4] Mihransitad's son Nastuh later took part in the campaigns of Khosrow against the Byzantines.

In 588, however, the Sasanian Empire was in chaos, and he was summoned by Hormizd IV at the urging of Nastuh.

According to Ferdowsi, he told the Sasanian king that the astrologers had predicted that a certain Bahram Chobin would be the savior of Iran.
