At least he is termed by Arrian satrap of Parthia, during the advance of Alexander against Bessus, when he was detached by the king, together with Erigyius and Caranus to crush the revolt of Satibarzanes, in Aria (329 BC).
According to Arrian, upon this, he sent a force against him, led by Artabazus, Erigyius, and Caranus.
