Varsken (Middle Persian: Vazgēn) was an Iranian prince from the Mihranid family of Gugark, who served as the bidaxsh (margrave) of the region from 470 to 482. He was the son and successor of Arshusha II. Upon the death of his father, Varsken went to the Sasanian capital of Ctesiphon and was received by the shahanshah Peroz I (r. 459–484), converting to the family's former religion, Zoroastrianism. As a reward for his conversion, he was given the viceroyalty of Caucasian Albania and a daughter of Peroz in marriage.

  • Varsken (Middle Persian: Vazgēn) was an Iranian prince from the Mihranid family of Gugark, who served as the bidaxsh (margrave) of the region from 470 to 482. He was the son and successor of Arshusha II.

As a reward for his conversion, he was given the viceroyalty of Caucasian Albania and a daughter of Peroz in marriage. Espousing his pro-Iranian position, Varsken attempted to force his family to convert to Zoroastrianism, including his first wife Shushanik, which eventually resulted in her martyrdom, dying from the violence inflicted by her husband. His policies were unacceptable to the Iberian king Vakhtang I (r. 447/49–502/22), who had him killed and then revolted against Iran in 482. Varsken was succeeded by Arshusha III. (en)
  • Varsken, in medio persiano: Vazgēn (... – 482), è stato un principe iranico appartenente alla famiglia dei Mehranidi di Gugark, che ricoprì in vita il ruolo di bidaxsh (una sorta di margravio) della regione dal 470 al 482. Figlio e successore di Arshusha II, alla morte del padre Varsken si recò nella capitale sasanide di Ctesifonte e fu accolto dallo shahanshah Peroz I (regnante dal 459 al 484). Fu lì che abbandonò intorno al 470 il cristianesimo e abbracciò lo zoroastrismo. Come ricompensa per la sua conversione, gli fu concesso il vicereame dell'Albania caucasica e una figlia di Peroz in sposa. Abbracciando la causa filo-iranica, Varsken tentò di costringere la sua famiglia a convertirsi allo zoroastrismo, compresa la sua prima moglie Shushanik, evento che alla fine portò al suo martirio, con la donna che morì per via delle violenze inflitte dal marito. La sua politica si rivelò inaccettabile per il re iberico Vakhtang I (r. 447/449-502/522), che lo fece uccidere e si ribellò all'impero sasanide nel 482. A Varsken successe Arshusha III. (it)
