description: "Khosrov I was a Parthian prince who served as a Roman client king of Armenia.Khosrov I was one of the sons born to King Vologases II of Armenia who is also known as Vologases V of Parthia by a mother whose name is unknown. Through his father, Khosrov I was a member of the House of Parthia and thus a relation of the Arsacid dynasty of Armenia.In 191, Vologases II ascended the Parthian throne, and as a result relinquished the Armenian throne to Khosrov I.

As a client monarch of Rome, Khosrov I was under the protection of Septimius Severus and his successor Caracalla.Between 214 and 216, Khosrov I with his family were held under Roman detention for unknown reasons which provoked a major uprising in Armenia against Rome. In 215, Caracalla led a Roman army and invaded Armenia to end the uprising. Khosrov I may be the Khosrov mentioned in an Egyptian inscription that speaks of Khosrov the Armenian.In 217 when Khosrov I died, his son Tiridates II, was granted the Armenian crown by the Roman emperor Caracalla. Tiridates II was declared King of Armenia upon Caracalla's assa"
