An ancient kingdom located at the mouth of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, at the head of the Persian Gulf. The region was called Messene, but was later called Karachene after its principal city, Charax. Hyspaosines, who was appointed governor by the Seleucid king Antiochus IV, gained independence in the second half of the 2nd century BCE. It prospered as a key point on the east-west trade route from the Persian Gulf to Petra and later Palmyra. After lasting for about 350 years, it was conquered by Ardashir I of the Sassanid Empire in 224 AD. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
ティグリス川とユーフラテス川の河口,ペルシア湾頭にあった古代の王国。この地方はメッセネといったが,主要都市カラクスCharaxの名にちなんでカラケネと呼ばれた。セレウコス朝アンティオコス4世によって総督に任命されたヒュスパオシネスが,前2世紀後半に自立。ペルシア湾からペトラ,のちにはパルミュラを経由する東西貿易路の要衝として繁栄した。約350年間つづいたのち,後224年にササン朝ペルシアのアルダシール1世に征服された。
