Also Known As
Hakhamaneshi
Dynasty of kings that ruled in ancient Persia (550-331 BC) Achaemenian dynasty : Early Persian dynasty. It derives its name from Achaemenes, who is thought to have lived in the early 7th century BC. From his son Teispes were descended two lines of kings. The older line included Cyrus I, Cambyses I, Cyrus II or Cyrus The Great, and Cambyses II; the junior line began with Dariush I and ended with the death of Dariush III. Its greatest rulers were Cyrus II (559-529 BC), who actually established the Persian empire and from whose reign it is dated; Dariush I, who secured the borders from external threats; and Xerxes I, who completed many of Dariush's public works. At its height, the Achaemenian Empire reached from Macedonia to northern India and from the Caucasus Mountains to the Persian Gulf. The ruins of one of its capitals, Persepolis, survive from its golden age.
