It is possible that Rhadamsades, perhaps of Sarmatian or Alan origin, is the same person as Rausimod, a barbarian king who invaded Pannonia in 322 and was killed by the forces of Constantine the Great.

Like his predecessor Theothorses, his name is of Iranian origin,[1] which could indicate that he was a Sarmatian or Alan tribal leader or nobleman who seized power, rather than a genuine member of the previous Bosporan ruling Tiberian-Julian dynasty.

[8] Rhadamsades shared power with another Bosporan king, Rhescuporis VI,[6] from 314 until the end of his reign.

[8] According to the writings of the fifth-century historian Zosimus and the tenth-century emperor Constantine VII, an army of Sarmatians and Maeotians invaded Pannonia in 322 under the command of the king Rausimod, perhaps identifiable with Rhadamsades.

[5] Rausimod is said to have been defeated, pursued and killed by the forces of Constantine the Great in 322;[10] the Bosporan Rhadamsades is also known to have died in 322.
