Abreas Frataraka

Abreas Fratara (299 - 218 BC( was governor of Parthia from 282 BC and member of the prominent Frataraka family.

His assignment to Parthia proved to much fortuitous: He became renowed for his beneficence tolerance and common sense. So much so that the residents of Hekatompylos held a festival in his honour. After he was removed as governor from Parthia by Onomastos I, he started threatening civil war. Onomastos resorted to generous bribing to keep his subjects in line.

He would later convert to Zoroastrianism.
